Custom Case! :D U-chanel edge ?

Soooo recently ive feel the need to get a nice case with window and get a nice red neons on it! 

 

 

Since my case isnt that bad (Cooler master elite 371) i searched over the internet and i found some nice videos (http://mnpctech.com/), im planing to cut a side panel of my case, then get a u-channel edge molding (wich i didnt finde yet on my country: Portugal), already got the acrylic panel for it :D ill get a progress thing with photos (from how it is and the progress overall).

 

 

 

if anyone know where i can get it in a store (someone from my country perhaps) because i kinda cant get it true the internet...

 

 

thanks :D

Cool, I did the same thing with my case but I just used glass and foam from the local hardware store.

 

im just considering like keep a fan slot on the case and not cut that part since that fan is a intake one or cut a rectangle:

 

like this :

and could you get me an image of that foam ?

I would do the top one if you have a really beefy graphics card and the bottom one if you don't or if you have a blower style card and I just used regular packing foam to keep the glass off the case a little
