Case Rebirth: Redoing Antec 300 Modulations - Overclock.net

jaded · 09-07-09

Current Modulation: Sand and repaint Blacked out Antec 300 Possibly add new accessories such as new fan controller, Different Lighting Effects and change cpu cooler

Current pictures of Antec 300: Only changes that have been made since the old pictures of an SLI setup of 216 core 260s by EVGA.

So to give it a go the names jaded and ill be re-modding my Antec 300.
My Antec 300 has already been Painted completely black, 2inch circular holes cut for cable management.

New modulations: 1.Going to sand down the black paint job for the most part and give it a go on a Mirage effect. Ill be purchasing Duplicolors Mirage from a nearby local autoshop. Havnt decided on the color effect yet.

2.Ill also be making a cut on the sidepanel and inserting a sheet of Plexi-Glass w/a possible window tint. Havnt decided on shape/window design. possibly 2 side by side middle windows or Full window.

3. Changing Lighting effects if blue led doesnt apear to match the design. Add a fan controller.

I will now walk-out the door and go get supplies. Be back later on for more updates.

yeah, quick problem though, Just went out to home depot and purchased

- 300 Series Dremel
- 50-60-80-150 grit sandpaper for paint removal/paint thinner
- painterstape
etc etc

Only problem is when I left there to go check autozone and advanced auto parts in a metro atlanta "Cartersville, ga" None of them appeared to have ANY mirage kits made by dupli-color. They had plenty of duplicolor paints, textured paint, sparkled paint, etc...Just no mirage kits...Any idea where I can find this stuff guys?
