Hey everyone,

I've got a 13.3" late 2008 macbook, to make a long story short i cracked the glass cover that's over the lcd pretty bad, I read a couple threads and figured out how to remove it, I love the look of the computer without the glass, and want to build a bezel that goes around the border of the screen to cover up the sides and bottom using frontpanelexpress.com, its been done before and I'm including pictures, I just need the exact dimensions of the screen surround or an idea on how i can do it very accurately,

thanks in advance,


this is a picture of cryonic49's bezel ( thanks for pics, i will take down pictures if need be )

and here it is on his macbook, I want to powdercoat mine black, with a custom logo

now i haven't been successful in contacting cryonic49 to get the measurements, so any help is appreciated, if not i will order the glass and take it to a metal shop...?
