UPDATE:

more pics on post #2

more pics on post #12

more pics on post #14

still trying to decide weather I want to top mount my radiator or bottom mount my radiator...

I am thinking I will bottom mount it just cause it should be easy to fill and bleed the water cooling system...

well this is what is looked like...

this is what the case looked like at first(note this is not my pic but the rest of the pics are my pics)

assaulter_99 · Dec 13, 2009, 01:05 PM

Black is beauty lol. Proof? Everyone goes for it. Red? Not so sure but what i can tell you is that it'll be unique.

assaulter_99 · Dec 14, 2009, 01:53 PM

Man thats wicked, the stunt with the window at the top. It looks neat and nice. Can you take pics with the side panel on? just to see the contrast (you ll then know if you need to paint it or not, but i guess you know that already! lol )

smashed_99cbr · Dec 15, 2009, 12:28 AM

assaulter_99 · Dec 15, 2009, 04:05 AM

You my friend, are extreme! Will you paint (panels) it or keep it as is?

Zubasa · Dec 15, 2009, 04:25 AM

Just one thing, you better go buy yourself a couple fan grills.

Have the fans exposed like that is a potential hazard

It also makes thing easier to get into the fans.
eg. your fingers

There are also some stylish fan grills you can get to add to the looks.
