Was bored a few days ago, decided I wanted to mod my PC somehow. Ordered 2 windows kits. I have a window on both the right and left sides of the case. Installed the windows today. Currently awaiting my blue cold cathode tube to arrive in the mail so I can finish this off. Once it gets here, I'll put it in and take another pic to post here.

Yeah, my friends dad had a dremmel so he let me head over there and use it.
I still have a few things I wanna do with the case. I think im going to paint the cover black and change the front panel. Right now the front panels white background with blue stripe. I'm thinking I should change it to silver background and black stripe. Black cover and silver/black panel would look pretty nice. Lets hope I can do this without ruining the case. Wish me luck all.

You should deffintalely pimp it out with some lights. Especially in places where you will have a window or something.

Started repainting and changing the front face plate. Here is the Shuttle at the moment, a bit of a mess if I dont say so myself:

The can of spray paint I bought was extremely cruddy, so I'm gonna try sanding and then repainting using a brush.

Not bad, looking good bro. My is a work of art in the inside. Lots of fans, rounded cables, and drives all over. No lights, because my case is solid, and I dont intend on putting in a window in mine. I did snap a shot while I was installing some cables and fans the other day. Maybe I will post it once I get back.

That is bright as Hell, but it looks sweet. I was planning on doing that with my XBOX only with a red LED.
