Nice love the handles and the paint.

Um won't the plexi covers around the drives stop airflow in the case?

Because cooling works well with air flowing in the front over the cards and out the back.

Yea im gonna make some small holes in the piece of perspex on the left side and the fan in the blow hole is gonna be blowing air into the case.

I painted the hdd cover and the cover for the top part of the case, also i painted the small part that is replacing where the switches were before....but i kinda screwed it so ill have to bondo it up a bit to fix it.

I also fixed the black and white logo and it looks secks now ^^

The hdd cover.

Its really hard to get good photos of the glossy white and black ><

I have a question. What exactly does clear coat do and should i bother with it? also what is the best way to apply it if i wanna use it?

[Drum Thumper]

Clear coating protects the paint from slight scratches and dings. If you put enough clear coats down (most newer vehicles have 8 to 10 clear coats IIRC) and wetsand inbetween coats, you'll get the classic 'wet' look like you see on many classic cars that are custom built.

Edit--I'm pretty sure we've got some guides in the tutorial section.

Thanks Drum thumper. I guess i will buy some clear coat and cover the case with it. This is a small update i didnt really do that much just painted a few things and took photos on the covers in the case.

Thats all for today, Ill do some more this weekend or on monday.

Love the case, the cover over the drve bay is very nice, great paint job. Hopefuly the cover doesn't block the airflow.
