ok some feedback on the paint scheme? So the paint I bought for the top "grill" was a gold / chrome looking color. It actually just turned out chrome (did not match the cap at all). I am not also happy with the paint quality for that so going to try a different brand. Also the bottom half will also be painted, so the final scheme will be:

Black / Gold (top) and bottom will be a darker charcoal color.

In my opinion black just doesn't fit the NES. I would prefer white and red to match the Famicom. Or if you want to go all out make it all gold with the Triforce window and a few touches in green.

Great job with the mod btw

Looks awesome.  I think the black will go really well with a gold or champagne color.  I love that folks aren't afraid to mess with their "sacred" consoles.  I painted my SNES really gaudy colors just so I'd never have any desire to sell it.  :)

Yeah this one was heavily yellowed I could have retrobright but went a different direction.  I chose black because it fits better in my entertainment center

Yes his paint jobs rock. Well if I ever get a white and red entertainment center I may paint it like that. :) serious note if I ever get a 2nd NES I will provably do that.

Dogbone with the tiny reset button. Its small enough and placed that you wont hit it by accident.
