Covering ugly motherboard

[Clanscorpia]

So my motherboard has a black PCB but all the wiring in it is brown on top, so I was wondering if I could cover it with plastidip. I was also thinking about 3d printing but thats expensive but would it work? Thanks!

Plasti-dip would work but you will want to mask off all the connectors and make cut lines before removing the masking to ensure ti doesn't pull up surrounding plasti-dip. If you could model something 3D printing or making a cover with acrylic can work.

3D printing as a starting template seems like the best idea to me, since you can plastidip or cover it however you like from there (maybe a nice carbon fiber wrap?)

if you were to 3d  print i would go with the higher temp plastic (cant remember which one is the higher temp i think its abs)
