thanks for all the kind words the stealthing i'll try to get pics up for but really i just ground the plastic down till it was a thin backing for the perspex, the bolts were left for my dvd drive but needed grinding for the cdrw cost for the project i think will be along the lines of.. 6.99 paint for chassis 6.99 speaker grill for front 4 coolermaster neon's @8.21 ea 2 evercool alu @9.99 ea and the baybus bits and pieces which would have come to about 20 quid as for the drawing, yup, curtesy of an article i read it the forums here, although for the edges of the gpu and ram i painted them with model "white" paint first to give a good base for the yellow bic, coz the pcb board just wouldnt take it otherwise
