I have a corsair carbide spec 03 and i want to add some underglow lighting just like nzxt h440...

i can add led strips but they are not diffused so the glow effect is not seen like h440...

if i add led strips then i also get reflection of leds on the desk which doesnt look good at all...

so please give me some new idea, suggestion, guide which can help me get a similar underglow like h440...

easiest getto solution would be to sand a bit of transparent plastic and use that as diffuser

Put some translucent plastic film over them so it becomes diffused.

any examples or images of this film?

 

Just search for translucent plastic.

This is something you can buy at an office supplies store:

Don't they ship worldwide? If not, USA has soooo many proxy shipping options. Just make a bigger order so its worth the hassle! Or so you can justify it :)

i live in india things get costly as soon as you want something from anyplace other than india xD
