 | The first thing I noticed on the front of the case is that there is no plastic on the door. The front door is made entirely of aluminum. The fins on the front of the case give it the look of a shark. One thing I've always disliked about cases made out of aluminum is the lightweight flimsy feel of the door and side panel. Even though this case only weighs 14lbs, the front door is very solid. - The Review |

I love this case! After I read this, I had to go out and buy one. Might also be one of my first mods I do, was thinking of painting some of the case a color to highlight it, perhaps a blue/grey color.
Although I'm not too good at painting, might take it to a local auto-body shop to get a REALLY high gloss on it  |

Glad you like the case, it's still one of my favorites, and is still being used as my main box.
Funny you should mention modding it, just saw the Shark pre-modded over at Monarch Computer. They did a BRIGHT red paint job on the front bezel, and the area around the "window". Was totally impressed by it, made me wonder if I could get a similiar look by going with a silver/chrome, or even a blue to match the lights in it.
