The folks over at Case Mod Blog have posted one impressive case that resembles the look and feel of an Aston Martin exotic car.
The build was created in 80 hours of work using a Cooler Master S case. There is plenty of bling and, while there is no genuine Aston Martin part with the exception of logos attached to the case, it surely looks the part with crème leather handles, wood vinyl and carbon fiber foil, enhanced lighting as well as an analog watch that was sourced from a 2006 Mercury Milan. The outside of the case, however, is a matter of taste and die-hard Aston Martin fans may claim that the round edges would be more appropriate for a Hyundai and clash with the current Aston Martin design language.
However, the inside of the case which was created using "a combination of stainless steel roof flashing and chrome side molding kit from an Auto Supply company" are the much more impressive part that give the case a clean look and make it easy to use when hardware needs to be accessed.
Lightbox Tom's, it's like 6 years old and works on mobiles even.
Um... ok?????

My only concern would be fear of overheating issues as the cpu etc is air cooled. all the drives and PSU are completely enclosed other then what air is pushed behind the motherboard tray and gaps in the molding. I would think the system would have trouble with adequate airflow. you may consider perforating the motherboard side of your molding with some holes in some kind of pattern, maybe some cool looking Aston Martin logo out of holes. that should fix any airflow issues.
