I found the h110 contrary to popular belief very nice to install, it's a very different process than the h100 but I did enjoy it.

LoL. Not sure if your first post had the H110 in it as well.. but that's a nice troll if not! ^^ 

 

I love this case. You could maybe consider to pain the mesh in red? I am sure this would look outstanding considering that you have like a black, silver, red theme going on? Can't wait to see more.
