Plaster mold for xbox lid

[rjfony]

I have a Halo special edition Xbox with an unsightly crack on the case on the top left section of the X. So that will have to be covered. What I'm thinking about doing is making a plaster mold using the lid. Then I will order some plexiglass and hopefully attempt to drape mold it in my oven using the plaster mold. After that I will do some cutting with a dremel and replace the X on the green lid with the newly created X. Do you think this will work? Does anyone have any tips or suggestions? What color combination do you think might go well? That yellowish green background color of the halo case seems kind of tough to work with.

The second thing is that the silver halo logo on the front is worn is some places. I would like to touch it up. Does anyone know the exact color of silver this might be?

Thanks in advance for any input.

curious how this turned out for you?

it might require suction molding once the plastic is heated enough to bend, but curious how the draping method worked and photos of result you got.

I still plan on getting to this project. Christmas, overtime at work, and other xbox projects have put it on hold. I fully intend on getting around to it, but it likely won't be until sometime in January.
