Welcome to my case mod! It will be starting out as a plain old Inwin V500 case and I will be modding it quite a lot. The hardware includes...

-Phenom x4 840T
-Some era-spec CPU cooler.
-DFI LANParty Jr. 790GX M3H5
-Some era-spec RAM (8GB)
-Some GPU
-Some old Delta 460W with super small cables (UV reactive extensions!)
-32GB SSD (hidden)

The mod ideas I have in mind are...

-Acrylic window etched in the LANParty ghost logo.
-Black Plastidip frame and sidepanels.
-UV Light (LED or CC? No clue.)
-Handle on top panel of case (make it LAN-able!)
-DFI and LANParty logos spraypainted throughout the case (with real fake drips!)
-3D printed fan cover

And some more as it goes along! Get ready to be thrown back to 2009!

To begin... I traced the side-window (note the multiple set of lines!) onto the side panel.



Traced lines onto the acrylic, then I would score it with the tool.



And its cut! Not very clean, and you can see where my first cut and second cut was. Also, do NOT do it on your bed. I am still finding acrylic shavings over me when I wake up in the morning. _-_



Next was paint. I chose some copy Plastidip (this stuff was $1 cheaper for 3 more ounces!).



I see why it was cheaper. D:



The victims!



After paint, not dried yet. If you note the dark spot on the 3.5" bay, thats when I sneezed (wear a mask!!) and clamped down on the sprayer.. and put a good burst all on it.

More to come!

I'll be incorporating this mod into a new one... stay tuned!
