where to start

[darksbane]

hey, im new to case modding and im not really sure where to start or what to do, ive put a neon light and cold cathode tube in but thats about it, any suggestions would be great. ive got some pics of wat it looks like at the moment:

you can start by hiding those wires and stealthing that drive

 

[darksbane]

i did hide most of it, it was alot worse then that and i wasnt really sure how to go about hiding wat was left. wats stealthing and how do i do it?

 

[darksbane]

ok, i found a way to hide some more wires:

but im not sure wat to do with wats left. the wires on the left arent long enough to run under the motherboard and theres no where to hide whats left.

is this tutorial correct for stealthing drives?

dude, modding is about being creative
stop and think !
is there anything you dont like about your case?
how's the airflow? how about the overall appearance, do you like its colour?
do you take it to lans? why not add some handles on the top

why not add some handles on the top

i wouldnt trust those things for nothing........... BUT.......that guide is good for stealthing

I'd pull everything out and paint the inside. Rustoleum Colbalt Blue Metalflake topped with a clear coat would make the view through that window much nicer.....IMO

Primer coat>Blue coat>wet sand (600/800grit)>Blue coat>sand>clearcoat (sand if needed).......

ya i wouldnt put handles on my case....the top comes off, you've gotta take the top off to get the sides off so the lid would probably pop off if i used handles....stealthing my drive turned out alot easier then i thought it would be and it actually looks alright for a first go

I've used that blue on a couple cases; scroll down to check out the first one I did several years ago....
