Looks great!
I see waht you mean about the IDE now. I like IDE though as it provides some compatability that Sata hasn't got yet for some of my work testing. I always told myself not to use my gaming rigs for testing hardware, that has never worked.
Looking good, and the blue sata cable is matching in the color scheme.
Have you ever used the plastic paint that impregnates itself? A friend got some for recoloring a car he was chopping and rebuilding, the primer softens the plastic and then you paint it and it pulls the color into the plastic. He used some door handles off a different model car and wanted to match the leather.
