Ive been working on this on and off for 3 days now, still got some sanding and polishing on the front panel and the top to do. Im also looking for a decent deal on some leds, I need 25-30 Red 6000mcd leds and about 20 resistors. So let me know if anyone has any deals. On with the pics.

DVD Drive in the back
Let me know what you guys think and any suggestions you might have would be great. Also I just painted the Jewel black so ill update once i get the case sanded with the jewel on.

There some interesting fans here. There are some that vent horizontally so it might fit well in a slim box. _________________
might get 2 of these and put one on each side of the side vents blowing out and get a single 60mm fan to replace the stock one and tie them all together into one molex connection.
Updates*(Sorry No Pics)
Sanded with 1200grit sand paper id say about 30% done

Yet another amazing box about to enter the history books. Keep up the good work, bro. And if you need any stock replacement parts, lemmie know. I have 3 cases lying here... I might use one, but that still leaves 2 for ya, they have controller ports and PSU, so you should be happy _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."

Finished Sanding and got the first coat of paint on it about 15 minutes ago, im using a glossy black it looks really nice. There's alittle bit of orange peel effect on the top but alot worse on the front panel. Im planning on doing around 4 coats of paint. Also im still looking for some red led's if anyone has any let me know.
First Coat on the Top
