Default Antec 302

We'll I'm about to start my first case mod of my Antec 300. Don't have much to say about it but here is a list of planned mods, some may not happen and new ones may be thought up along the way:
  • PSU Flip mod- to have fan suck air from outside of case
  • EXTREME cable management holes
  • Cut off all honeycomb fan grills and replace with wire fans grills
  • Plasti-dip the interior of case
  • Stealth DVD ROM mod
  • Blue Cold Cathode install
  • Custom mounted swtich for cold cathodes
  • Side window mod
  • Stealth Sunbeam Rheobus fan controller
  • 2x Yate Loon Blue High Speed Fans
  • Case Handles from MNpcTech.com
  • Wire up 4 5mm Blue LED's for top 140mm fan
  • Replace top 140mm fan (see end of post #131)


Thats all thats planned at the moment, I will be picking up some dremel cut off discs hopefully tomorrow to start cutting CM holes, fan grills, PSU mod. And maybe go ahead and pick up the Plasti-dip. Fans and cold cathodes will be in tonight, I'll probably hav pics of those later.

Heres some pics of the case when It arrived:

Ok got in some fan grills, the Blue Yate Loons, and Blue cold cathode kit here it is installed along with all my parts, temporarily I can't stand the cables.
















I also started mocking up where to PSU fan hole is going to be, probably going to use a jig saw to cut it.




And also started laying out where I wanted my CM holes to be at:





Should start actually cutting holes tomorrow, so that means more pics to come.
