The plastic is polished black, the logo and text is reflective silver grey. I’m interested in replacing with a custom made cover, but I don’t know the process that was used to achieve this. I have found out that they most probably used laser etching for my iPod, but I can’t find anything on this. Thanks.

Update: I found an Ebay listing with the logo half scratched off, confirming my assumption of it being somehow printed on. I still don’t know how though, haha.

    Well first of all, I’m just really curious. I always had a thing for learning how things are made and if I could remake them at home. Second, I guess I’d like to go with my own design, while staying in the bounds of the same style. Third, I’m still looking for what I am good at.

      That awesome! The best way to approach this in a DIY manner would be 3D printing. Easy 3D printing would be FDM printers, but better quality would be with Resin printer (in the home DIY scope).
