RIT dye to dye front bezel black?

[Bitek]

I know this stuff works well for many types of plastic. I'm wondering if anyone has used it to dye a front bezel black, and if so how it turned out.

I have a new blk case, and a beige dvd burner I really like, but hate they don't match...

Sounds like it'd work.

I just masked mine off and spray painted it.

I'll 3rd that. You can get it at Pep Boys or any local auto place. Just spray a few coats on, leave to dry for 24 hours, and then air it out for a few days to get the smell out. It's better than paint because it won't chip off, plus it comes in spray form. It also looks and feels factory, allowing text and other 3D edges to show through, unlike paint which kind of covers it.
