Finally got a chance to see this outside of work (where the proxy blocks all the pics). I'm glad to see that you did not use the green plexi for the window. The green edging looks nice, but the clear window looks so much better. And the loop looks very clean, too

Update 05-06

I am on a roll with this project A few things to do like:
A paintjob of the DVD player

Disassembled xplayer


And after some layers, a black box. On the DVD there was a clear round sticker. Placed a white sticker in the middle of it





I want to place the reservoir without the holders, so I have a made a piece of mesh



Painted it black an made a hole in it



Placed like this



Put everything together



And the picture of the mesh with the hole for the fill port


The fillport under the DVD, which is holding the reservoir in place



And then ....... the best job, filling. The well-known Feser One UV Acid Green



Tasty poison green



Cheers!!!



And fill it. First a little bit for the leaktest







And after some hours the rest





After some rinsing and waiting Feser becomes quite "calm"







There's still a lot of air in it, but will disappear eventually





Front also quite nice. Reservoir is good to see through the mesh







And another picture of the tribal panel





There are some nice things that i’m gonna do with the radiator and a double bottom for the cables, so he's not finished yet

Grtzzz.

You Recapped the Xbox for the LOLS???
You sir are a sick man!

Great modding, i somehow liked the feser slightly better when it was cloudy, but then again it will look 10X crazier when it is all done

Looks good, though I am a bit surprised at the WC components paired with the 120mm rad, I would have gone 240.

I for one think the tribal paint is a bit too much (but I'm not a fan of those anywhere ever), but it's still frikkin' sweet. That soft bright green is perfect.

Exactly, I love cable management because I like a clean look. Besides its what you enjoy, Most people that build computers and computer game in common hate console. I don't think a 7 year old should be on Bfbc2 on maxed settings.

Update 11-06

Did some brainstorming with the products fromMnpctech
First I have did same nice things with the Mnpctech Pro-Line Billet Fan Grills



Taken some measurements and sawn the acrylic and leave it longer on both sides



And bend it (with heatgun)



Then I taped off the two sides and painted it black



Fitting the Fan grill



And see how it is





Nice .... but not finished, so cut another piece of acryl



Cut out the USB, Ethernet, power and HDMI.I didn't cut out the "normal" TV connection



And Of course place it back again







Nice .... but still not finished. Cut a black aluminum plate



Tape off



And place it back





Yes...... now he's finished

Did the upper and lower edges with my dremel, Just a little polishing





That's it, in terms of the fan grill, more customization of products coming up.

Grtzzz.

Now if they used a bigger box in the 1st place i bet there would of been less issue's with the 360 to start with.
