UPDATE: So I found an acrylic panel at work and gaffled it... Cut it to size and now its mounted in the side of my case.

    I'm 90% finished with Pimpin' My Rig™.

    This past weekend I cut out a hole in the side panel; now I'm waiting for extra cash so I can buy an acrylic sheet to put over it.
    Right now, the side panel has been ghetto-rigged with... SARAN WRAP and scotch tape to keep the dust out... It actually works pretty well. If it wasn't so flimsy and easy to punch through I would have stuck with it...

    Today I finished cutting out holes so I could do some cable management... My case is now cable clutter free when viewed from the side panel. Where did all the cables go might you ask? Behind the motherboard tray and drive cages...
    With the cables out of the way, there is now unrestricted airflow and it actually dropped my CPU temperatures by about 3°C.

    It will be definitely completed by the time the LAN comes up; ya'll can check it out because I know you all care dearly.
    SAM! I requisition your baller camera at the LAN so you can take pictures and such.

    Something you suckas might be actually interested in:

    Because I cut out like 75% of the space in the side panel, I no longer have the need nor the space for the 2 80mm fans that were once there.
    I know Nico is in dire need of one them, so I'm putting one up for grabs if anyone needs them.

Useless fun facts for you nerds (Chris & Sam):
CPU TEMPS: IDLE: 28°C / 100% LOAD: 46°C
GPU TEMPS: IDLE: 37°C / 100% LOAD, 80% FAN SPEED: 48°C
