Modder's Mesh Roof/Front Panel

[Richie]

Hey Guys! 

 

I want to mod the roof and front panel of the Corsair 760t, so i can fit 2x360 rads and was wondering if I could get some advice!

 

I want to cut out the current roof (Like this http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7140/7038341549_52abf7b30f_c.jpg) , and replace it with black Hex Modder's Mesh, similar to the 600t, but flatter, although a slight upwards curve would be great! The rad can still sit inside the case, I don't need to move it outside. 

 

I also want to cut the front panel, to the width of the current mesh, and replace the meshed fan filter the entire way up the from to fit a Alphacool 360 Monsta. Would cutting this plastic make it look messy? Should I cut out the entire flat section of the front panel and make another one with a cutout for the mesh?

 

Basically, how do I shape and fit the mesh, such that it has a solid shape. 

 

Should I put in a support bracket similar to the one in the 600t roof? And what should I make it from?!

 

So many questions, so little time!

Here's a build that has the same mesh replacement for the roof you'd like to do: http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=89296&page=3

 

In most cases you can get aluminium modders mesh which is very easy to bend and shape and won't be much of a problem since there is a plastic structure under holding it, if you'd like to remove the plastic structure partially like in the link use modders mesh made of steel since it is a harder and stiffer metal. And the brackets can be made easily out of sheet metal and a pair of snips, or cut carefully to accommodate for mounting points, like the one in the photo you have.

I'm actually hoping to do a mod to the 760t, to add the mesh to the top panel, like the 600t! I may just have to wait till I get my hands on it and see how it all fits together! Thanks for the help
