Default school bus mod

im thinking of making my cm stacker 830 into a school bus that red or black or something
i cant really do the wiring for the light but i have an idea on how to include the top 120 fan in the design.....make it the top vent/firesccape hatch. drill in tiny screw that arent functional just for looks to give the top that riveted look that all school buses have on the top of em......put in plexiglass for the front windshield in the front door since its a heavy duty aluminum door and add the head/fog lights. for the tail lights i would put them to the very left and right of where the psu goes. my one problem would be the bus windows. how would i do those?
wheels would be kinda easy just find a pair that r close to the one's that lian-li puts on it's cases(the vxxxx, the v1100, etc etc) and then screw those on the bottom
opinions?

Sorry, man, but honestly (and I normally don't do this) I don't like the idea one bit. I think the CM is fine the way it is, and besides I hate school buses they remind me of school, which I hate

But if you honestly want to do it, and don't care about ruining you stacker, go ahead.

If I were you though I would try to think of a different idea.
