Mods:
Dissembled case and resprayed entire case black
Modded the Power switch panel 180 degrees. On/Off button is now on opposite side of case. Marbled the case top and sprayed black. Add fan rheostat in back of package tray to control BigBoy 200mm fan on top. Cut 80mm hole in motherboard tray and added side fan to blow air under motherboard. This dropped internal MB temps by 5 degrees. Added OCZ ram Cooler for chilly ram overclocking

Added Scythe 4 fan controller with Yate Loon HS 120mm fans. The CPU fan runs at 1900-2000 and the case fans run at 1600. This baby is "Quiet"

Looks pretty good ~ but could still use a little more cable management:)
 
^What he said! And I think you need a smoother finish on that paint job, but nonetheless good lookin' case!
 
Antec 900

I intentionally marbled the top that is why it is not smooth. Since these picts were taken I have reverse installed the bottom hard drives eliminating the cabling requirements and I removed the top hard drive just below the DVD and installed it in a external esata enclosure. Will update picts in a couple of weeks
 
^_^ I'm not a fan of the top paint job... but whatever rocks your boat buddy!
 
good

i like it cause antec makes good cases but in my opinion if your going to go through the pain in the ass of striping a case for paint, then you should of gone with a more agresive color, maybe a uv blue or something but thats just me
