Cooler Master CM-690 II mod

just a simple one didn't like that fan grill on the stock supplied window spoils the looks IMO so bought a piece of 5mm acrylic off the bay had em trim it to size didn't bother with rounding the corner as it not necessary

strapped the original window to the new one with electrical tape as a guide for drilling so holes where spot on jobs a good un i think

Where did you get the side window panel from mate

Looks real nice!

Does this place do custom cuts or is it set dimensions? Will be looking to window my 500R once the WC is in, have seen 'kits' to do it but they are only on sale in the states.

Excellent, cheers, as luck would have it the kit available in the states lists the dimensions, add a little silicone job done
