I voted 3/10 because:

Too much clutter, personally don't like yellow, would look better with the clips completely off. Something about the whole build seems tacky, from the obvious custom paint job to the RC Car wheels, just lacks a certain finesse.

Are you sure you know the meaning of the word clutter, I think I have to question your intelligence,, Thanks for the visit

6/10. I personally could care less what color you prefer in your case, but ditch the orange fans. Get Yellow ones to match the clips.

My only suggestions is the yellow and wheels. Having the theme be mostly black would give it that stealthier look which would look better IMO. Also, the wheels seem pretty flashy, doesn't really flow with the build but its your customers build so it doesn't matter! :D 8/10!

the build is "as always" Top Notch :) the effort put into this is obvious.

The color combination is something I would reconsider!
If I might suggest something is.... stick to one color for the details (hdd holders, fans etc) whatever that is... yellow, orange, silver!

well deserved 8/10
