Pre-modded antec 900 side panel

I recently ordered a bolt on DIY window kit for an antec 900 side panel off frozencpu. Long story short my friend and I did a horrible job and totally fucked up the panel so that I no longer would care to use it. Now I am trying to get the thing replaced and fitted with a new window. So far I have 3 options - 1.) buy a replacement side panel from antec, buy the same window kit, and try again (dont want to do this very much). 2.) Buy a replacement side panel and send the panel to a site that would put in the window for me, and then get the thing powdercoated so it matches the rest of my case (the most expensive, over 100 bucks, but probably the most feasible). and 3.) get a replacement panel and leave it as is, admitting defeat (id still have to powdercoat it. not liking this option).

my question is this - does anyone either a.) know a site that both sells antec 900 panels and pre-mods windows on them for cheap, or just a site that does window modding for less money than the one I have in mind (directron, the only one I could find). or b.) does anyone here do this professionally (that term is used loosely - i just want it to look perfect) and for cheap that I could deal with instead of an actual company? the best would be someone who has sufficient skill and lives in southern california that i could either drive to or ship to for cheap. obviously i would then be powdercoating the panel later.

thank you guys in advance!
 
Try performance-pcs.com or frozencpu.com. They should definitely have something.

they only have window kits like the one I had previously, what i'm looking for is a site or a person that offers the whole service rather than just the parts.
 
Can you cut any kind of hole that looks OK in side ?

If so look in the phone book for a Plastic Seller and get a piee of Plexiglas cut 2" bigger than hole and use clear silicon caulk from HD as your glue to glue the window in place..

Thats what I used on my case..

For straight cuts use a scrap piece (also HD) of seel clamped to the case to follow..

idk.. with the money you are looking to spend, its almost more practical to buy a new case.
