It doesn't get that hot. But remove the heatpipe first-though it probably won't get hot enough to melt the paint, the paint will cause cooling performance to suffer unless its see-thru super thin. I'm sure you already understand that your warranty will be void.

mmm..maybe your front panel didn't use screws...or it just use clipping method..try to search a clip or anything else that bind the panel to the casing..just my 2 cents..gud luck

They using slot in 'clip', but you have to make sure the structure has the hole for your 120mm fan, else you have to cut both,
I suggest you start from side window, can see improvement..
