Here are a few pictures of my case after powder coating and the assembly process.
I will update this post when I install the components.

I'm waiting for Coolermaster to release the windowed side panels. then I will get those plus the windowed top panel and have those powder coated. so I can have a few options as to how I view my case.

If there was ever a best thread title to view your worklog, you seem to have found it.

Nice paint job. Sub'd.
Must say, i read it as 'red as santa's ass' and i just had to click it. Not that red as satans ass' isn't.

That's one thing I have already decided on. I won't be buying widowed side panels as I have cut the stock ones and have templates ready to have them made. Windows will be where the stock venting was.

I just want the option of window or no window. Plus I want to keep the integrity of the case.

I hear ya, I think I would do the same if I ever had plans to get rid of the case but I will be keeping this one.

So what are your plans for the face being that it is black and plastic?

I have red paint that matches the powdercoat and I ordered some red carbon fiber vinyl. I am also thinking of vinyl dye. I will try the vinyl first and go from there.

Just wanted to share this with you as I know your going to purchase the top window from CM. I decided to put one in myself.

Just grabbed a 5$ peice of 1/16" plexi and cut to size. I decided to make it look like it was a factory window and reused the original pins the grill used. I can still put it back to it's original state this way

How is your's commin along?

All is well with the case. I want to enlarge the window on top.
