Some of the smaller internal pieces that I cut from panels that are in varying stages on completion:
These are the rails for the HDD rack. There is a similar pair for the PSU, but they are slightly longer:
When the sliding trays are in place the 1/16" thick panel is more sturdy than I anticipated.
When I place a noticeable amount of pressure in the center it flexes slightly, so I decided to make some center rails. It is diffuclt to tell what is what, bu on the right-side of the first image the tray is slid out a bit to show the center rail.

This panel still needs to be cut to size as I made it over-sized to ensure the piece would be large enough. For the mold, I used 2 pieces of 18" x 18" x 1/2" black granite, mylar and crisco.

Motherboard side:
note: The clear pass-through support in the center of the lighting tube may or may not be used. I can't tell at this point if I will need the added support, but if I do I will most likely re-make the piece in black as the clear looks out of place.
And another shot of the lighting:
note: I think that I will only do one tube like this as the lighting is diffused and diminished. The rest of the CCFL's will be stock.... not sure though.
