Here is the recipe for a pink faux play it loud DMG -
Take 1 original grey DMG apart then thoroughly clean the outer shell with warm soapy water and rinse.(Be careful not to damage the lettering.)
Put on eye protection, latex/rubber gloves, and maybe some clothes that you don't care about accidentally destroying.(Rit dye and/or acetone and probably boiling water as well may cause skin irritation and blindness so please be carefull.)
Then in a disposable container mix 1 packet of pink Rit dye(I think the color you want is actually called Fuchsia but you can use whatever color you want in either powder or liquid form) with nearly boiling water and a dash of acetone then stir. (Add more dye and/or acetone for deeper color but I would not recomend adding more than 2 parts acetone to 3 parts water. Some people say to add 1 part acetone to 1 part water but I think that would eat away at the plastic a little too much. And acetone changes the boiling point of water so boil the water then wait a minute or so for it to cool before carefully adding the acetone.)
Submerge the the DMG shell in the dye solution for 10-15 minutes or until desired color is attained.(Do not overcook your DMG by submerging it too long 30-40 minutes max. And remember to mix the solution just before you submerge the DMG and every minute or so thereafter.)
Once you have removed your DMG shell from the solution rinse it thoroughly with cool water and air dry or gently wipe it down with paper towel.(You can discard the dye solution by carefully pouring it down your sink if you use a funnel to keep it from dying your sink then let hot water run for a few minutes. If you get the dye on anything unwanted wash immediately with hot water + soap and pray.)
Assemble your DMG with a Play it Loud dark grey screen and buttons then ENJOY!
