Really nice components going into this mod

[Fuganater]

Finally got my paint and a few more things in. Here we go.

Africa is killing my updates! We had one of our worst storms yet yesterday so painting was kinda tough. But I was able to get a ton done.

90 degree fitting and T-fitting

Crazy long molex extender

Here is how I'm making my custom drain port.

Looks pretty good. I have to shorten the part between the pump and the T-fitting due to space restrictions.

I cut another hole for the wires to get to the fan controller since I had to move it.

Here you can see the old one and the new one.

And now for the painted parts!!

Grills

Now I'm just messing with angles to get some cool shots. Will look better once I get my back drop and decent lighting.

With the lights on.

I think this paint job is what makes the mod "pop". Hope you all are enjoying it as much as I am.

I want to paint this fan grill red.

I have more pictures of what I did today but they are not uploaded yet. I'll post again as soon as they are.

Cheers till then.

looking good!

That red makes a big difference, really does make it pop. Looking good

Remember how I wanted to paint that side grill?

All taped up

Looks pretty good.

I painted the slot covers too.

The LED lighting strip brackets too.

Part of the CPU water block.

PSU fan grill

So here is what the front of the case looks like so far.

Since I painted the side grill cover and you all saw what it looks like... how do you think the rear 2 grills would look red?

Let me know what you guys think!

Cheers till later.

You've started so you should probably finish - every bit of mesh on the computer is now red other than those back bits and the back of the PSU (course, painting the PSU mesh might do nasty things to your warranty) - I say go for it

you should take your slot covers and make custom covers for your res and fan controller, that accent color makes it pop for sure... I love the look of painted mesh

Just finished it up and it looks pretty good. Pics soon.

I was going to do that with the fan controller but I can't. The circuit board is like as big as the slot is so that is a no go. And the same goes with the res.

aack, i meant the dvd bay. lol... unless the haf x is got those odd bay covers

[Fuganater]

The DVD cover does have a custom cover coming. I just can't get it to stick right. Its too like... floppy. I'm trying different things as we speak.
