I want the net and the frame to be black to match, so I decided to dye the net using this.

I bought a few sheets of 4mm clear acrylic for this project and some other future uses.

user posted image

This material is tough to use without the proper tools. Using a plastic cutter, I cut it to proper sizes.

user posted image

This will be the cover for the radiator on top of the case (super-glued together). Long work ahead....

Cover mounted on the radiator and case top piece. Fits perfectly, and now some more measuring.

God, finally its over. Took a whole day to drill all these holes with a rotary tool. Felt like i have drilled more than 1000 holes (did not bother to count how many holes I've drilled).

user posted image

Some more sanding and filling needed, will post later on~

Hehe... err.... I am using a china brand rm50.00 rotary tool:P Same as a Dremel brand one, but much less powerful. I usually use them for pcb hole drilling.

I just hope the many small holes don't give too much air resistance:)

The custom acrylic top radiator holder already filled the gaps and wet sanded.

Since I have removed the hard disk cage and also cut a hole on the 2.5" hard drive mount beside the power supply, as well as cutting another bigger hole for a side window, oh no... where am I going to put my storage drive? The answer (already thought of that long ago):

user posted image

I only need a NGFF or M.2. SSD and a 2.5" hard drive. I am not the type of person to store so many things in my pc. Welcome to the high speed internet era tongue.gif

Ta-da, the side of the motherboard tray. I really like that location:)

SATA power and data cables should be able to fit in nicely:)

My jap version bitfenix prodigy case includes 2 side windows (one with transparent window, one with vents). I want to match both my side windows, so I removed the the window and do a little modding on it.

user posted image

Unbend all the clips, the transparent plastic piece goes out fairly easily.

user posted image

I don't want to use the pins, so i grind them all off. Muhahhaha.
