Default stacker bump

i want to get rid of this hump looking thing on the top of the stacker 810
stacker-bump-stacker_bump.jpg
so i can drill two holes for the water tubing to fit through (i'll attach an MCR320 rad on top). does anybody know how easy that process is? what exactly is under there? i dont want the tubing to go through the other side because any breakage would leak directly onto the system and no matter how tight i make my worm drives, i'd just feel alot more comfortable about the drills being in the front.

i got this idea from the hardforums:

if i'm not mistaken, that's a stacker.

what do you guys think?
i've always thought it was ugly anyway

I took a look at mine and there's like 7 or 8 screws that hold it on from the inside of the case. If you take it off there are some screw holes to fill in but it should be too hard. Here's a work log of someone completely disassembling the case and you can get a good idea of what it looks like: http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=144441

I found some better pictures with various angles here.

Duh I should'a though of that too. I do like it, I may do something like that. I probably would try to get rid of those rivets too. I think they hold on a cross brace though.
