To view this case mod, go here.
Specs:
CASE: ANTEC 300
MOBO: ASUS P8Z68M-PRO
CPU: INTEL i5 2500K @ 4.5GHz
COOLER: ANTEC KUHLER H2O 620
MEM: CORSAIR VENGEANCE (2X4GB) DDR3 1600
VGA: MSI GTX 460 HAWK TALON ATTACK
OPTICAL: BLU-RAY BURNER, CD/DVD BURNER
SOUND: ROCKETFISH 5.1
PSU: ROSEWILL CAPSTONE 650W (80 PLUS GOLD)
HDD: SAMSUNG 500GB 7200rpm
EXTRA: AFT XM5U All-in-one USB 2.0 Card Reader
Mods:
Painted the inside frame black. Drilled 3 x 1.25" holes in back plate for cable management. Installed LED along inside edges of front panel and two "Team Realtree" emblems on outside of front panel. Cut window into the side panel. Lined window with "u channel molding" from MNPCTech. Installed 1/8" Plexi with a fan mounted on the plexi.Installed 2 LED bars along the inside/top of the case. Customized the heatsink on my GTX 460, adding 2 x 120mm fans. Scorpion emblem on heatsink came from my montage of being deployed to Iraq (USMC-2003), which is over-ran with spike tail lizards, scorpions, and desert vipers. Lights were picked up at auto parts stores, so they were already set-up for 12V system so they only required splicing into a molex connector.

This is my first ever PC build. Thanks for looking.
