Default Help mod my case.

So I picked one of these up
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811133132
and would like to add something inside of it to make it look a little better I've been considering UV reactive (blue) and blue cathodes but what else could be done. I'm thinking about putting a UV reactive water cooling kit into it as well and having it look a little better.....any ideas?

You could paint the interior a nice flat black. I actually have that case laying around here not being used but I did paint it while I actually was using it and I really liked the look. Probably the cheapest "mod" you can do, if you can consider painting a mod.

Well if you planned on painting and adding cathodes, why not add some mirrors inside to reflect the light inside the case to make it brighter

I,too am thinking of painting my case.....not black on the inside but perhaps yellow. I have blue LED Case fans now and I think yellow would definitely make it stand out....then again, I have an idea for a marbled or hammered finish too...we will see
