i want to get mine paint it black not the shinny black but just black liek every other black case and than have blue fans lites and stuff
i really wanna get that front intake fan that he has that is my 1st aim
than i dont know what else i can do
any ideas from u guys on simple cost efective good looking mods on this case?

Just give us a yell and ill give ya a hand if you need/want it. I got some tools you can borrow (youll have to suplly required bits, etc).

Do the front intake fan hole first, or any cutting first for that matter.
Then deal with the paint job - you sound as though you want a matt black finish :wink:
Then install all the gadgets etc.

Keep me informed :D

soduns good knight, god knows cicadas case is a bloody marvel :D

actually, how much was that case knight....? ;)

mod mod mod.... yum yum.

40$
i just wnt a cheap one that i can mod with jono :P
and i love that case since i saw it at OCAU
i just need something to make the side panel look better cause a window with cc lights in it is a bit boring i wanna have SOMETHING special on the pannel or something to make it unique
