you have some great ideas!
I would suggest that you make the green stripe stand out or in, so that it's not in the same level as the rest of the case.( don know the English expression for this.)

Basically, you were right. I guess the technical terms you're looking for are "raised" and "recessed."

That could be interesting...I'll have to look at ways to do this. I can get my hands on plenty of scrap aluminum... I think it would be cool to be able to recess it...the panel is only 1/8" thick though and I don't think I have access to anything that could mill that out. Maybe just glue on aluminum strips? hmm...

I also was able to pick up a little spray paint today. I'm going to take apart the fans I'm using and try to get them painted tonight...hopefully pics will be up before bedtime. Thanks for the support guys!

ok...here's my update for the day...

sooooooooo, I came home with a little bit of paint today...

I was torn because I had the choice between that green (grass green) and this OTHER green that looked like radioactive craziness...but it was high heat engine paint or something and I wasn't sure how it would do on plastic. ok ok, I'm just making excuses because I wish I would have gotten the other green. But this one is nice too. Anyway...PICTURES!

First step, disassemble...Check!

Second step, Prime.......Check!

Third step, make it colorful..........Check!

that green is after one coat...I think the humidity is right around 100% (it feels like swimming when you step outside) so this painting thing is going to take awhile...I have to bring it inside to dry so we have a stinky house right now. Well I think that's it for today...hopefully I'll get some cutting done for the rear fan tomorrow and I STILL need to decide what to do with that old video card fan... (suggestions are welcome *hint hint*)

OH, almost forgot...I found these wheels lying around the house. Now to attach them somehow...

All done!

This is looking hella cool! Keep it up!

Thanks bro! I appreciate the support! My problem is that I keep staying up past midnight messing around with this, but then have to get up at 5am for PT. I think it's slowly killing me

love what you have done with this mod and must say I like your personal text:
"cooler than the other side of the pillow"

grr...waiting for payday sucks...good news though, tomorrow I will be a Staff Sergeant so that means more money (hooray money!), more rank (hooray rank!) and more responsibility (boo responsibility!). Hopefully more updates by the weekend!

good job with the fans
It would look cool if you would done some detailing with black paint( like the edge of the blabe in black?)


keep up the good work, this will be one great case
