MNPC [www.mnpctech.com] does custom work however you want, and MountainMods does too. FrozenCPU has a selection of pre-modded cases from LiLi and Silverstone and stuff. Thermaltake makes custom-painted versions of some of their cases, which cost WAY too much to be worth it but that's just imo because I don't like the tacky paint jobs.

I know there's other places too, I just can't think of them right now...

Depending on how modded you want there is also PerformancePCs.com. They take cases from the various manufacturers and mod them in different ways. They'll also do special mods to order from what I understand. You might want to check them out.

It's going to depend a lot on how modified you want the case to be. What all are you looking to have done?

you want it riced out, thats all you had to say, riced out.

Windows are pretty common, even on production cases now-a-days. Lights are not too often pre-installed but, certain places will install a switch for you which limits where to put them. Most of the time it's not much more than double sticky tape holding lights in place. Custom painted you're pretty much on your own for. You could get one of the new cooler master cases thats semi-custom but, just about any decent body shop can do a better job than the factory of getting you a nice custom paint job.

No, I mean a local AUTO body shop, sorry for the lack of clarification. most anything better than maaco will be able to do a paint job far superior to what you would imagine for a computer case.

+1 Hank's store does some nice case mods. :D

He sells the case, and does custom work. You need to Email him, and let him know what you want done, and he will quote you with the total price of the case + work.

It will be cheaper then buying the case somewhere else, and mailing it off to him in most cases. And his store has some pretty competitive pricing. The only badside is case postage is kinda expensive due to weight.

I am going to send hank and invitation to Anandtech.

I already extended the invitation to petra's and jab-tech, so look out for these two vendors. :p

Yeah, its cool when you talk to the president/owner of the company in person or email. I bought some sleeved fans from him. Nice work. They are down around the Miami area somewhere I think. I know its on the east coast of FL anyway.
