Thread Starter 

I have a Corsair GS600 and everything in my Rig is white. White fans, Case and I really want a White PSU. I debated buying a new PSU like the Silencer MK III since its all white but I figured id ask and see if they just sell the shells. I dont care about my warranty so I have no problem taking the PSU apart.

Not sure about covers, but you can take the cover off and paint it.

Well... If you wan't a glossy professional looking white, your best bet is to get it powder coated but that's very expensive... If you want to make it for a cheaper price then yes, primer and glossy white.

Ok so I guess. I find it odd that they dont sell PSU shells

 

A: Order a Silencer MK III 

B: Try my luck at painting which might look like crap
