sorry if this is the wrong area to post, im new here.
but anyway, i got tired of boring white computer so ive looked into case modding.
i want to go for black and red, mostly black, with red plexi glass and neon/tubing.
here are the main coverings:

the side panels both look the same.
what i want to do so far is put a window on the panel that covers the main parts (dont we all)
howerver ive no idea what to make the fron look like.
ill probally end up putting a spoiler on the back (friends idea, thought it would be cool)
ive had ideas about putting more red plexi glass were the drive bays go.
id also like some internal temp lcds and some of those nobs ive seen.
maybe also sand down the front.
just looking for some ideas, and i also dont have access to many resources to mod with. (spraypaint, plexiglass, cutting tools, etc)
if youve got any ideas thanks =)
 
I think that case would look really good with a turbine style blowhole/fan mod in the front, but if you don't have access to a lot of stuff, then it would be pretty tough to pull off. I like your ideas with the red and internal lcds, but how are you planning to do that without tools?
 
hmm
i could probally find someone around my neborhood who can cut a hole in the side pannel and the front
ive got a sander, i know thatl help for the turbine
this website here sells air ducts: http://www.mnpctech.com/casemodstore.html
they also sell this tape that holds plexi real well, and a few other things.
 
keep in mind that bondo works well for resurfacing or reshaping the case. it is real cheap and can be picked up from a hardware store or a auto store.
