Not to mention I can add LED's to the triggers, custom firmware, etc, but the LED's wouldn't be cheap to do and most people wouldn't wanna pay the price since soldering SMD's is a HUGE PITA and it takes forever to do it correctly.
On a side note, do reflash the firmware on the 360 dvd drives for burned games, right? What would you charge me? I have the Halo 3 edition and I'm not 100% sure I want to open it up, but if I do, I want to reflash the firmware. I just don't want to get banned from Xbox Live.

ya ill have to look into all the different options to get the business going, but here is something else that i can do for people
Ill also add some red LEDs in the case plus paint the insides to math the red and black theme
I mod controllers too with new leds RF chips lights in the dome etc
there definetly is a good amount of money to be made here but like rawfuls said.. you cant get lazy as this will be my only job when im up there..
I do have another question...
if i decide to bring my airbrush up to my apt.. is there any type of vacuum that will suck in all the smell that the paints throw out? I dont wanna be hotboxing in my room all day
Oh and as for the firmware.. From my understanding as long as you do a stealth patch to the games you will not have a problem getting banned on xbox live. Personally I would not take the chance on playing burned game on live.. but if i decided to be a baddass and try it then id do it on an account that was only 3 months..
I have not successfully modded a HDD yet, but am in the process of getting it done..
Id like to be a one stop shop. fix, mod, upgrade do whatever they want me to do.
heres some work ive done..
it actually is a nice dark red.. but looks almost pinkish
I know the striping isnt perfect but it was my first attempt. it also has a red ROL plus a rapid fire chip installed
Along with an ebay shop and craigslist I will start a youtube channel and every case i make, controller i mod, etc I will post up and throw an ebay link along with it so maybe people there will also send me there stuff.
Ive been trying to think of a name for my "company" and came up with these..
everyday modding
sikkazzmods
sikkmods
elitemodding (unless its taken..)
one stop mod shop
keep the responses coming.. Im hoping someone can inform me on this machine or know a machine that will get the job that i want done.
but so far after a number of searches this seems to be the best machine for me.
