All depends m8, if you just want to change the colour of your case then go with spray paint but if your planning on doing some art work then use the air brush

I agree, but my main concern is the finish, basic spray paint doesnt always leave a clean sheen... not with out alot of work right? so if you use an air brush, and a nice clean clear, and glossy finish? or can you get that finish with standard Spray paint. Ive never seen one that was done with spray paint that i thought looked really good... i mean Ive seen pics of SPRAY that look really good..but When you see them In person, up close They look crappy, bumpy, ruff, and over all "ghetto"
your thoughts?

Well it`s all in the preparation you have to get rid of the paint finish thats on your case now get it down to the metal then give it a few coats of primer (giving it a light sand between coats) then 3 or 4 coats of your finish colour (giving it a light sand between coats) and you should have a really nice finish
