    All looks good apart from the paint on the sides.

    I figured out what I did wrong with the paint.

    I forgot about the silver undercoat. The blue paint is a flat blue, and you are supposed to spray it thinly over the silver undercoat. I layed down the silver undercoat, then laid the blue down too heavily, so that the silver undercoat did not show through.

    At least I know that it will be easy to fix.

    I had the urge to finish this up, so I went ahead and dipped into the savings to order a sheet of carbon fiber vinyl. It should be arriving in a few days, and I will update at that point. I will be getting home from work in about an hour, and I plan to finish painting my panels at that point.

    And I finished making the front bezels actual form. I still have to clean it up and prepare it for wrapping in carbon fiber vinyl... This is gonna look sick.



    Just finished up the panel for the bezel.

    Here is how it is mounted to the faceplate. I will be cleaning this up, possibly with some bondo, or I may just wrap it with the carbon fiber.



    And here is what the whole thing looks like.



    I also fixed up ONE of the side panels today... I don't know WHAT happened, but it came out fine tonight... check it.

    Thanks man! The case is really coming together, I can't wait to get my power supply tonight! I used up the last of my paint on the window panel so that it would be ready when my trim arrives tomorrow, so I need to get more paint in order to finish the opposite panel.

    I will post pictures of my PC Power and Cooling 750 Watt Quad Silencer tonight when I recieve it!
