I recently purchased this workgroup server 6150/66. I know it’s in bad shape but it came with a sonnet G3 card (my main reason for buying it), I’m conflicted however, I know it needs most likely new housing but I want to keep the WGS silkscreen. My main question is does anybody have a replacement housing (preferably bottom housing and a cd slot bezel) and the next question being is anyone here good with resin, I’d like to send this off to someone to fill in the broken areas on the top case of this machine and then do a paint match after retro brighting. I was going to check @MacEffects but I don’t see any clear top cases for this. I would even special order one if I could. The bottom feet however, I do need so will most likely buy those there. Does anyone know someone in this community who’s good at resin/epoxy work (I do not trust myself or feel comfortable doing it). Photos below.

Beautiful machine! I had a new in box 6150 I regret selling years ago.
I think it’ll be a great little machine but I really want to find someone to fill in the breaks with epoxy or resin (not worried about surface texture) so I can paint match and at least keep it somewhat original.
