Default Mod Ideas for a Lian Li PC-7?

So i will be building a new rig int he coming month and i'm really digging the Lian Li PC-7



Mine will have a window though.

As you see here





Marcus is a GOD. So since he lives in the U.K i can't get any work done from him so i might speak to CD about it but what would be some good colors to use.


I was thinking using these Fans



Linky

That is the color of them. And then getting a Scythe NInja Copper with a blue fan. So i was thinking Orange fans + Blue CPU cooler as well as UV cathodes


So what is a good case color combo to use? And what do you guys think this kind of work cost. Powdercoating + Case.

Case=$110 powdercoating=?

I agree, a nice blue is amazing. Another color to consider is candy apple red.

That blue isn't powder coating though, it's anodised!

What do you guys think of this





I'm going to try to use that as inspiration. I already talked to marcus about getting me those fans. I didn't know watercooling shop was shipping to the U.S because you can't get those fans inside the U.S.
