Heres some pics of my machine. Does anyone have some modding ideas or some ideas for some mods that can be done to make it look alittle better if so please post them. Heres the pics.

would look way better if u did something with ur drives to make them match the case

[Enablingwolf]

Etchings maybe? Painting the drives would be nice also.

[creepy]

I also plan to get 3 more red (looks orange bc the green tint of the case) cc's. That way I can have one on the top left/right and bottom left/right. How do you think a biohazard or high voltage etching would look?

[Enablingwolf]

I am not into etchings myself.. but if you like the look go for it. Think of a theme and run with it. Having an overall theme helps with the end result.
They also make decals that mimic the etched look.

[creepy]

Those decals are what I was talking about. Picking out a color for the drives is going to be a pain in the _ _ _.

maybe use nylon sleeving instead of electric tape? and try to hide more wires if you can (maybe clip the left over ones). i agree with an etching.

[Enablingwolf]

Well you could extend the color scheme of the case and go with green.. There is a sticky on how to paint drives. I've done mine(many times) and it was a snap.
Since you got a green case think of something that will match you overall apperance and keep that balance. One of my favorite parts of these forums is helping people but I am kind of shy in telling them which direction their mods should take in terms of creativity. It is actually an extension of you, and what you want to project. Feedback is always gladly given though, or pointers/ products available.

Tried the sleeving before. I hated it.

I think itll be pretty hard to find a shade of green thatll match the color of the case (maybe im wrong?). Im thinking maybe a orange (or would that really throw it off) or just a simple green.

Sleeving is actually quite easy. A little planing and it's done in 2 hours or less. With the acrylic cases it is common to "see" sleeved wires. The molex remover tool makes short work of sleeving. Of course a good kit too.

[creepy]

Either way I still wont bother with it. As said tried it once turned out to be nothing but a pain and constanly frayed. Only thing I plan to use sleeving wise is plastic loom/corregated hose which I would have used > tape but I figured it would restrict airflow more plus its more $.

[Enablingwolf]

Wonder if vynyl stickers would work for bezels? Stealth the drives? hhmm.... clear neon green lacquer.They do make it, but might be a challenge to find in a handcan.

[Enablingwolf]

Hmm the intergration of the loom can be a nice idea.... I am currently using blue inside of my case(steel), I myself got a blue thing going on inside my box, since I have blue mobo I ran with it... All my inner components are blue mostly. Later in winter time I will paint the inside of my box to match.

[creepy]

Hrmm..Wonder if flat out neon/florcent (sp?) green paint would look ok.

[Enablingwolf]

You could get a paint chip and see... tape it to the area in question and check it out. Most automotive paint stores just might help ya out.

[creepy]

Only one way to find out hah. Guess ill wait till tomorrow. I also plan to change the molex connectors with uv ones and tape up the wires a bit better.

[magick_man]

maybe open up the grills made into the case, they look horribly restrictive and prolly make it a little louder than it needs to be.
just an idea

[Daewood]

yah if you still have the front bezels stealth the drives and get some crome colored grills and cut out the stock ones and the crome will match the fan controler

[creepy]

You guys think those simple fan grills that cost like 99cents will look alright?
