Yep! I did it! Well? no... but I did it! And it looks ok! We used a circular hand saw to cut into the side panel and used car trim to round the edges, after that we took some clear acrylic and cut it to size and hot glued it. Any questions? Feel free to ask! for now BYE!

Case mod looks good! I just wish I didn't have to look at a grey PSU

 

The paint job on the front panel also looks pretty great

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

Ugh its ugly. The Case looks like its straight from a Recycling Compound. I feel like you made it worse with that Window. Like why would you show the Harddrive Cage ? PSU at the Top also looks suuuuuuper terrible. I just dont like anything about it. But GJ for the Effort i guess :D

When I put together the parts for this build I forgot a psu and I was inpatient so I just grabbed an old psu from my old computer :/

The Truth can hurt. I didnt mean to make you think that i mean it in any kind of disrespect. If you would take a look at my "Setup" you´d probably say the same thing, i run an Dell Latitude D610 :P
