So I found this case for sale on craigslist. It's an older enermax server case and from what I can tell by the pics its huge....
Here are pictures of what the case looks like. (Not the particular case I'll be buying, but I digress)

Now, I need ideas for what to do to it.
So far what I'm thinking is, Matte black exterior. Gloss red interior. With the door accents being painted red as well.
I'm looking into the possibility of getting petras to donate a water cooling kit to the project.
I'd like to get their logo then cut out of the side panel, backed with acrylic and backlit.
I want to cut a hole in the front of the case, under the drive bays, and if possible mount an antec 200mm big boy fan there.
I'd cut out for a top mounted radiator mounted internally. Hopefully looking at a MCR320.
That's all my ideas for now, your thoughts? I'm paying $40 for the case btw. And the entire thing is steel.
