Expensive like how much?

You cant just say you managed to get some! tell us where the hell you got it! i used the crappy vantec stuff and hate it! such a waste! i need the goods! now!

my Aerocool has a 250mm. its a little too intense and looks a bit messy to me. im going to be moving it to the top of the case as an extraction fan rather. that way it'll be out of sight and i can run it at much lower speeds reducing its "woooooosh"!

Love that idea. really think it'll look awesome. just try keep the switches as flush as possible. Dont think they'll look nice sticking out at all.

All i want is the drill chuck! I shall be making a trip to pinetown very soon to check out your great find.

yeah thats the idea... they just gonna be etched with the lazer so once its sprayed it'll still be black but you'll see the pattern with the change in light on the door...

one more thing... The grey design will not be grey on the door once etched... its just like that so i can see what is what between the actual cutouts and the etching... it'll be black like the door... just incase anyone got worried
