This guy dyed the major case parts of his factory-white MacBook bright orange using Rit fabric dye (and swapped out some other bits with a factory-black model) to create this cool custom color scheme. This method is known in the modding community, but “The Brain” has improved on its speed and consistency for glossy parts by adding a preparatory sanding step. [via Hack a Day]

hi,
i got a mac book pro and i want to ask, how i can make the aluminium case black.

You might try searching on DIY annodizing aluminum. That or use a Sharpie.
Doesn’t Rit make a burnt orange dye? Or would Annoying State University (UT) charge a fee for that?
