    How about some etching on the window. Tint it black / blue and use red lighting behind it. Would looke awesome, l31mr0d can give you advice on it. There isnt really that many standard mods you can do to it without cutting it into bits. If you need to borrow a dremel gimme a shout.

    Its easy, you put a template behind the window, and use the etching tool that comes with the dremel.

    I have done something similar in a thermaltake xaser v1000 years ago, should be no problems at all.

    how did you reattach the parts you cut out? weld or rivet?

    i had a friend weld it back in, took a fair bit of work and carefull planning though. And on some case it just wont work. And even if you find a case where it will work, it will look messy as you will have to cut open the back of the case.
