Powdercoating my Cosmos?

[xdrift0rx]

Hey, i finally got it painted!

I forgot about this thread till a few minutes ago so i snapped some pics for you guys..

When i actually got the case i just went and reassembled it. forgot about everything else (i didnt even eat dinner!)
i spent from 5:30 to about 11:00 getting everything back together..

now the sad news is...a few days before i got my case back, we had a t-storm and my yard got hit with lightning..it traveled to the box otu front of our house which hit our cable/phone which surged through the ethernet line and took out my board! THE SECOND ONE!
so im once again on a search for a DFI 680i...if anyone has one and is willing to sell it i would be interested.

now for the pictures =)

oh one more thing, i didnt get it completely taken apart so i wasnt able to assemble the doors due to the mechanism being stuck. my powder coater said to take a soft mallet or piece of wood and hit them loose and they should be okay. i'll try that later.
one LAST thing, my theme for the outside was to be silver on the outside, and a black strip down the middle. i think it came out good.



oh yea, i think the silver HD bay bars set it off nicely, no?



the only reason the loop isnt filled is because i took it apart to get ready to test my components, but then i had to put it back together to get it signed off as unrepairable at a shop, so thats why my loop isnt filled. it rusn off the motherboard, and the motherboard doesnt even power on.
