I'm buying a spare bottom housing for my aluminum macbook and having it stripped and anodized black.

If all goes well hopefully I'll have a sexy black anodized aluminum MB

I don't get it either. Hell, I don't even know why people wrap car parts in this... it's hack.

Mac Pros all look that same. I wanted mine to look unique. Plus is protects against scratches.
