It must be silver. I bought a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme and this thing is HUGE, so I had to uninstall the fan.....thermaltake doesn't have any replacements in stock. Go figure.
Anyhow, I'd like to trade, or I'll but it if it's in good condition.

just a idea to throw at you. I checked on FrozenCPU and found the door is like $50 USD....Think about maybe a new piece of plexi and just mark the holes and cut to size. Puts you in the $10 - 20 USD range and you dont have to worry about condition!

Assuming the point is to just make the hole for the fan go away!!!!!

I too, have the armor with the 250mm fan and my Scythe Mine cooler just fits.
Have you tried mounting the fan on the outside of the panel hole instead of on the inside?
May take a little modification, but it might work.

Yea I tried mounting it on the inside. I tested the temps compared to without the fan and the difference is nil! I have three 120mm fans in the front as intake though....and I have another 120mm coming in for push/pull on my CPU cooler. This will most likely be enough.
Beside, it looks sooooo ugly with the fan on the outside.
