Well first off you should figure out your budget because that will dictate a lot of what you can and cannot do. An advantage to a low budget is it'll force you to use your imagination and come up with new inexpensive ways to accomplish what you what. Also you need to now what your skill level is currently at. If you're new to modding keep it simple at first and try something easy or maybe just a little above your skill level so it'll provide a bit of a challenge for you. You also need to consider what type of tools you can or where you can get access to some of the more expensive ones, like a work shop or friends. If you just want to play around with some design ideas and don't really want to get your hands dirty yet you could always download a #D program, SketchUP (free) http://sketchup.google.com/download.html, and play around in there. Well that's by 2 cents, hope this helps a little.

If you're a n00b (no offence, I am too), then start with summat simple.

Liiiike..... maybe a paint job, some lighting and a window cut.

Then go onto the more involved stuff like bondo work and chopping your case around big style.

Unless of course you have a definite idea of what you want, but judging by your post, you dont....

Welcome dude ^.^

First thing you should do is use punctuation. Second thing you should do is give us a little bio about yourself. What do you like? What are your 'favorites'? Once we know that, then maybe we can help you find a theme for a mod.

What difference would having liquid cooling make to what you want your case will look like?

From the interests you have mentioned, perhaps a sports themed mod?

[d_stilgar]

I always like car themed cases. What is your favorite car? What is your absolute favorite sport team? How about favorite FPS?

I've liked mods based on classic car colour schemes...

Like perhaps the Shelby blue and white stripes from the Cobra with maybe a Shelby badge or etching and stuff.

Perhaps he's looking to mod the reservoirs/radiator on the outside of the case.

And since cars have been mentioned, I wouldn't be surprised if that is gonna be the case. Make the reservoirs look like some Nitrous Oxide tanks, and maybe an actual radiator.
