I like how you covered those old holes. It looks so much better when the wires barely show at all. However, I would sleeve your fan cables, or at least the rear exhaust one, because you see that cable creep down the side

I really like how you organized the cables behind the mobo tray also. Good job!
Thanks for the input/reps man. What would you suggest for the fan cables??

Sleeve them a cool color, maybe green or black or something. Whatever you like or whatever you think fits in.

Covering up the stock holes really makes a nice difference.
For the sleeving, I'd suggest using just black, as anything else would only make it not look right.

Black sleeving, (1/8" for fans, 1/4" for molex) and maybe some red heatshrink. I would just get 1/4"-3/8" heatshrink, I find it really hard to fit 1/8" heatshrink on 1/8" sleeving. Keep in mind the heatshrink can be big because you shrink it lol.

I only suggest that you paint, and you are done.

I was going to paint it satin black on the inside while I had it apart, but I can't paint at work (where the majority of the modding happened), and It's too cold to paint outside in the garage at the moment.....(Damn Iowa winters

I am planning on doing it though sometime. Should I go black or maybe something that glows under UV light?? I have experimented with the paints and Orange/Red seems to pop the brightest when hit with black light. Give me some more ideas guys, I have a feeling I'm not done with this one yet....

Resize dem pics to 1024x768 please!

Also, I would sleeve your cables black and do blue UV heatshrink. Then you will see a little glowing here and there. Sleeve the sata cables too!

Done! Btw, where do you get UV reactive heatshrink at?
