custom milling/ paint, grips, different drop, slap a reg on it, get an elctronic hopper, ebolt it, something to just make it stand out

at least you know its boring, and we dont have to tell you like that SWAT-Worthy kid.
i also agree with kissXtheXbarrel, electric hoppers are good, way better then gravhoppers.

Painting a gun is mad easy. Theres a tutorial of how to do one in upgrades and customizing. I would also suggest an electric hopper and either a regulator or expansion chamber.

There's a painting how-to in the upgrades and customizing section. A cyclone would be a good upgrade along with an expansion chamber or Palmer's.

your gun is fine for rec play. I'd recommend a revvy asap though, even though you're against electronic hoppers.

The Rocket Cock will keep paint and dirt from entering your cocking slot. It'll also, as you put it, help your gun look a little more better this year.

I fail to see the rocket cock as a worthy "upgrade" this early in the upgrade path as well as the gravity hopper above isn't an upgrade really.
Is that gun electro? Your gun at this point is leaning twards the speedball look with the drop. I'd say that most mods to make it look "speedball cool" are things that will ultimately increase performance. If you're not concerned about speed, skip the Reg. too.
I say leave your gun alone until you decide that you need/want more performance then go from there or get a cheap agitated hopper to keep from having to shake your gun to keep balls feeding.

Thanks though, i still might get the rocket, I would also like an expansion chamber next year so i save more co2.

Instead of wasting your money on an expansion chamber, just buy an HPA tank. You can find them used at a good price.

the Dead On X-Core 8 Stage Black expansion chamber is only $25 at the most. Not really a waste of money, HPA tank is a waste of money.

How is an HPA tank a waste of money? Regardless of what you're woodsball buddies have told you about "awful Spyders" and "HPA SUCKS" they are wrong. Woodsballers believe so many myths it confounds me sometimes... HPA is more stable than CO2, cheaper (usually), and doesnt feed the trees.

OMG, why do you care about my opinion. there is no place near me that will fill one. im not driving hours out of town just to fill a tank, ill save money in gas if i just get the ex chamber.

ok then after that get a freaking electric hopper you can get a view loader revolution used for like 12 bucks and it will keep you from playing shake and bake with your marker some times these hard core woods ballers piss me off I mean come on. I play woods ball but I know the value of some of the stuff these speed ballers use because I also play speed ball. So I can understand you dalima with the compressed air so here is my list of upgrades.
electric hopper, new barrel, and a double trigger maybe an expansion chamber then bam your done. All the stuff you want to make your gun look a little more better is worthless all it will do is way you down.

thats what my brother told me, im prbly only going to get the expantion chamber, no eletric hopper yet, once i find a use for it ill buy it because i dont need to shoot 15 bps... yet. How dose the Dead On X-Core 8 Stage Black expansion chamber fit onto a custom pro, the drop forward only comes half way off?

you should have specified that earlier, rather than just saying "NOES ITZ A WAEST OF MONAY!"

HPA is better but if you have a distinct reason for sraying with C02 thats ok. I personally am going to stick with C02 because I fill my own C02 tanks.

the gun looks good. i don't like gun upgraded a lot... even more so if the upgrades are just eye candy. As long as you focus on your markers performance and your comfort (while using the gun) you'll be fine.
Instead of buying an expansion chamber go for a regulator (high pressure output ~800). Palmers are good.
