    Talking My Finished FT-01

    So after dissasembly, the powdercoaters destroying my doors, having to ship them a new case, and then not returning my motherboard tray with the rest of my parts, my rig is finally back together!

    I had everything powdercoated, that includes my dominator memory cooler with powdercated fan grills, and I also had my Xigamatek gpu cooler cover powdercoated as well.

    I'd love to hear you're guys' comments!

    Great paint job Only thing I would change are those front panel covers as they stand out like a sore thumb; they'd look better in black.

    I like the silver cause it matches the silverstone badge.

    Agree'd. Maybe powdercoat them black? or re-anodize them? If your happy with it thats all good though. Great job otherwise!

    I'd make the front covers black, TRUE red, and fan grills on memory cooler black.

    Looks great though.

    Nice looking case. Although, I would, as others have said, repaint those bay covers to match either the black or red. But, just as others have said, this is your case, and if you like it....good enough.

    Good job tho!
