Small Nice Case mods?

[AgaBoogaBoo]

I want to do something to my computer because the Antec Sonata looks the same as it did months ago. No, I'm not looking to add a window or anything, but I want to do something to add some more character to my setup. Any ideas?

I'd like to keep the cost low if possible but I won't limit myself on price...

Very open ended question.

It really depends on what you want to acheive out of a case mod, The obvious place to start is with a window and some good ol spring cleaning inside but I realise that this isn't for everyone.

Might I suggest a vinyl wrap or something along those lines as this is as good a way as any of customising your case.

The of course theres paint, varnish, stealth drives external lighting it's only your imagination that's the limit.

There are small things like stealthing your drives or switching your LED's from green/amber to blue, etc. I know you don't have a window, but my small project is getting my case neat inside, I'm trying to fit all these wires behind. A kinda big project would be to sleeve your cables, but seeing that you don't have a window I see no need unless you're crazy about CFM

What does it mean to "stealth" a drive? Like make it quiet?

Nope. Use the original cover to cover the cdrom door so it looks like nothing is there. Interesting on some machines, but since your case has a door it would be kind of pointless.
