    Yay for update,
    first thing i did was marked it off and drilled holes

    then used a jigsaw to cut it out

    and finally smoothed it out with my knock off dremel (thats me) and drilled the holes for the fans screws

    Afterwards i gave it a fresh coat of black paint.
    I will hopefully be getting paid this friday so i might be able to order a good chunk of my stuff. Till then all feedback is welcome....By the way my dad thinks im Nuts!

    Just a tiny update for the moment being, i waited for the fresh paint to dry

    then i installed the fan with four nuts
    i test fitted the psu and it fit in perfectly, i think the fan looks nice but then again in the end you wont see it due to the fact it will be covered by the radiator. thats all for now

    heres a pic of the red led fan in place with the grill from my ex psu

    and a pic from the side that shows the fan being powered by my old spare computer

    Oh and when i looked at this pic i realized the door was still grey so i quickly went out and painted it, unfortunately i didnt have any black so i used a dark grey, sorry forgot to take pics
