Do any companies still custom-modify cases to order?

I've pretty much given up on trying to find the sort of case I need, which is a MicroATX one one with a window and 120mm fan intake or exhaust that isn't an Apevia X-QPACK (or one of its rebrands like MicroFly), or the Thermaltake Lanbox, neither of which are quite large enough for my needs (to install a small liquid cooling system I already own.) A MicroATX-only Mini tower would get the job done. (not a mid-tower, and not a mini-tower that can accomodate normal ATX, it needs to be way smaller than that) But I don't think one of these EXISTS.

I've gone through every company I can think of who would modify a case to these specifications-- Performance-PCs.com, Directron.com, Xoxide.com, FrozenCPU.com, to no avail. Coolcases, who offered the exact case that'd suit my needs, doesn't seem to be in business anymore, or at least they never answer their mail and haven't updated their site in a year and 2 months.

So right to the point. Are there any companies left who will let you customize a case before shipment (e.g. adding windows, fan ports, that sort of thing?) Or am I stuck wasting money on a dremel and drill for a one time job I'll probably screw up? :(

Thanks for any tips.

Searched around for what you wanted, and yeah, pretty sure it does not exist. (at least with a window). Maybe give mnpctech.com a call and see if they can add a window to a Silverstone TJ08 or something. Be willing to part with some cash though or you will have to do it yourself.

I don't how much of a sport you are, but...

How about a Bob Slay from Mountain Mods? ;)

*edit*

BTW, click on the options. They'll even custom drill the radiator holes for $5.00 ...

Gotta love these guys!!! :D

mnpctech is taking mod orders for 2008 now...

Hey OP, What case do you want modded, what are the mods you want and what's your budget? PM me.

And you'll need to complete your Profile and make it public before we could do any biz.

Performance-PCs refused to do the mods for me. They said all the cases I'd want modded are too uncommon and it'd basically be a waste of their money to make a template to put a window in that side panel. They also said if they DID ever do it, it'd take a very very long time and that everyone else comes first. Now that's customer service!

Zepper, updated my profile. I'll PM you ASAP. Thanks!
