Hi, Thanks :D It is white carbon fiber vinyl on the graphics card, There is also black carbon fiber and brushed aluminium vinyl in places... And it's not nearly as clean as I want it to be yet :P

(You can buy the vinyls on eBay for example)

How did you paint the side of your graphics card?

I think that is not painted. I have seen some stickers (thin plastic sheet with sticky side :) ) with texture like that.

Ooh. Does vinyl stick to any surface? Or just metallic?

It seems to stick to anything, however the more expensive the vinyl the better it seems to stick to things like cables and well... basically the better it seems to stick to round objects

Yes both of the sticks are the same but I had a large air cooler before and had to take off the heat spreader for it to fit, now I left it off because I'm going to possibly put some whote carbon fiber on that... and then do the same with the other stick depending on how it works out
