Default Sunbeam Transformer Mods

Anyone have any ideas to mod my case? I've been pretty bored with it lately.

here's some pics











Mine looks almost exactly like the picture above but i have a green exhaust fan instead of a non-lit one.

Dimensions are 20.6" x 8.1" x 17.8"

it's a pretty large case.

Any ideas are appreciated

Definitely replace that side window with something with less spiral. Maybe a little more standard, or at least the Transformers logo to go with the rest of the theme.

Paint the inside, that bare metal is just unattractive, IMO. What kind of color schemes are your favorite? I'm picturing the outside of that case black and the inside all white. That may look pretty cool.

Is that a miniature casket in the HDD bay?

By what means do i go by replacing the side window and i've been thinking of painting the inside black actually.

That baige box is actually to hold tools the inserts for the HDD or cd drives. I took mine out because it was ugly

Hmm, maybe you could get a thin piece of aluminum either from another case or wherever and mount it to the existing panel. As to what mounting method would be the best, that's beyond my area of expertise.

I really like the side panel design. I would totally paint the interior. Grey is just butt ugly. Maybe add dual 120mm exhaust up top with a grill?
