Question Where to buy a Front panel for Antec Case

Hey I was at the 36 Hour LAN maddness and I was talking to one of the members here and he gave me the name of a site where I could buy just the front panel for an Antec case. Being super tired after 36 hours of gaming I forgot the name of the site. Does anyone know where I could find one?

Thanks,
Dreyco

There were 4 PR members there (in Eau Claire, WI) Lokie, Twizted, Infantwarmachine and myself.

Edit: Make that 5.... I keep forgetting about Lokie's son Z_Man since he doesn't post much.

Sure it would but imagine the fun you could have had.
Last weekend I had about a 24 hour round-trip excursion and this week about a 11 hour round-trip.
Lucky for me, this coming weekend will only be about a 2 hour round-trip to meet one or more PR members...... 3 weekends in a row.

Thanks, it was Lokie...

Also I'm goin to be sanding down my steel side panels and putting a clear coat over it. Any Suggestions on type of clear coat to use and how many since its steel? Also where do you get the plexiglass stuff for windows? Menards? Or does any hardware store have them?

Thanks,
Dreyco

I bought my first one at Menards but most larger hardware chains should have them as well. Sorry I can't help you on the clear coat question.

Kool... Yeah I talked to alot of ppl at the Lan but I dont hold a candle to my brotha Lokie... He was all over the place helping and chatting... It was kool to be able to talk to ppl coming up to me asking questions though.... When Lokie gets on the thread he will tell you of a good place here in Eau Claire to get what you need... I would bet Menards would have it but as I have only been there once and didnt see it as I was not looking for it i dunno... I let lokie know and he will post asap...

Heres what I plan on doing:

Cutting a Circlular window but leave a Lightning Bolt in the center.
Add Red Cathod to bottom of case.
Cut a spot for a 120mm chimmey fan (red LED) I already have a 80mm fan there...
Sand the side panels down to the metal and clear coat.
Put in a Fan Controller (red LED)
And find a cool front panel (that site only had one type)

When Im done it should be black on top and front and metal on the sides and glow red to match my Mobo and ATI card....

:-D We have the technology.....
