Default First Mod




Painted inside of entire case with florecent yellow, then covered it with black light reactive yellow paint, the front of the case that you can see in my other links has a neon wire hidden behind the door and grill. Zalman heat sink hidden behind the big cpu fan.http://home.twcny.rr.com/ddz2/case

Come on Clown. I'll grant you the window is premod, but you have to give him credit for the paint work. It is his first mod after all. I'd like to see more pictures too.

I wondered what all those funny blue letters were. I must be blind. It's been a long day. Thanks Napalm.

Thanks guys, yes the door I had to buy, but everything else I had to paint and wire. The front of the case had to be taken apart and I had to make covers on the inside of the door and grill to keep the neon light from getting back into the case. I also have a custom window alarm kit that feeds power to the door fan. I've looked at alot of pictures on the gallery page and I haven't seen anyone yet that has painted the inside of thier case. Besides alot of the case mods I see posted are premods with custom paint and lights anyways.

Ended up spending 350 for all the parts,paint,cables fans ect. Maybe if I cut the window myself I would have saved 20.00



oh yea, Clown, is this yours? http://www.pcapex.com/gallery/showga...rt=1&ppuser=32

I sure hope not, cause if you call that a mod, you have no room to talk bud, all I see is a window, big deal.

believeit or not, getting a good paint job on a case is one of the hardest parts of case modding to get just right without messing up, and it looks like you did just that, i give it a ten, nice color scheme and its easy to look at, and thats what a mod is supposed to do...and yes, painting the case is a mod
