This machine may look like a weapon of mass destruction, but its real purpose is far from the complete annihilation of the human race.

As a matter of fact, its main purpose is to enrich the lives of individuals by taking the concept of pimping ones gadget to a whole new level. Paul Knight uses this machine to modify the surface of the iPod and iPhone for a completely uber luxurious makeover. Making use of a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition process, what once used to look like a typical Apple product gets totally pimped out with a spanking brand new appearance. This process isn’t exactly new and is already employed in coating luxury watches, drill bits and aircrafts. The rates for this service can be found at Gigapascal, but his operations haven’t gone into full swintg yet.

Given the sophisticated results, it’s easy to see that this makeover isn’t your typical cheap-skate customization. So if you’ve got the dough and you’re looking into a whole new way to customize your iPod or iPhone, it doesn’t get any better than this.
