I just cut a hole in my case (front bezel) and the edges look like crap. What is the best way to cover them up and make it look at least halfway proffessional? It is a round hole.

maybe try getting some of the window molding here (http://www.caseetc.com/cgi-bin/caseetc/scan/sf=display/se=yes/se=Windows/sf=category/ml=15.html)

That's about all I can think of. What did you make the hole for? Air intake?

Yes, it is for an air intake on the front of the case. I would like to, it theory, run a thick piece of *something* from the front (covering sloppy dremel hole) to th efan side of the metal of the case, almost like a 1 inch duct. Would some kind of rubber tubing work?

This (http://www.pcmods.com/list.asp?DepID=8&CtgID=16) sounds exactly like what you're looking for. I've not used it myself but it looks as though it ought to do the job :D

You'v got the same thing as what william showed you in your house. Just chop off the bottom of a cottage cheese or small butter container. That's what I did. I painted it with chrome paint and used some epoxy to glue it on. Looks very professional. and it's cheeper. Even if you go to the grocery store to buy some butter :)
