1971 Dodge Super Bee Mod

looking good! it's very classy.

I laid the stencil for which to cut the mopar grill. I’ll start on it tomorrow on my day off.

I finally got around to adding the thin pin stripe above the larger stripe.

I got the Cooler Master Musketeer

For here:

I changed my mind on the Video card. I bought the 512MB DDR2 Geforce nVidia FX6600 PCI-Express card instead.

512mb on a 6600 overkill?

Any way keep up the good work!

The pin stripe really adds to the paint job. Is the musketeer going to be modded?

No. I will paint it flat black to match.

The memory came today. OCZ PC4000 Gold (2x512MB)

Should I add another pin stripe here? It'll only be a vertical stripe though.

I worked on the custom Mopar grill and yes, I know it's not perfect, but it is a start.

Here's kind of what I'm looking for.

Except I want mesh. Not thin modder's mesh, but something thicker. So I took it from this old case.

Here's what it looks like joined to the grill framing

And then again with the "M"

All the excess along the sides had to go....So I started cutting

Till I finished

And replaced the "M"

Here's kind of what to expect with the case fan attached.

One last thing. Should I leave the "M" Silver or paint it? Maybe to match the case (at least as close as possible)?

I think you should paint it, cause right now, it almost blends into the mesh. I thin it'll contrast well if you paint just the "M".

The majority thus far says Black paint.

I would have to agree with that - at least if you mean painting the "M" black. I'm sure it'll look fine with the entire thing painted or just the "M" painted, but I like the idea of the "M" contrasting colors and standing out. Maybe if you painted the mesh silver and the "M" black or something similar.
