I have always wanted my own Lian-Li case, but they have always been so expensive. Well I recently just got a job, and I just spent $80 on a PC-A05 case. I plan to do a little modding, and maybe add a water cooling loop if I get some extra cash. Don't expect a crazy big mod, because my next money pit will be a Nissan 240SX SE that I'm about to get my hands on :)
Here is the case stock as can be, It's even sexy even without mods :D
A couple of days ago, my order from mnpctech.com arrived. I ordered some carbon fiber vinyl film, uchannel, steel mesh, 3m vhb tape, and a red plexiglass window.
So far, I have only been able to install the window and wrap my scratched to hell power supply with carbon fiber film.
I'm gonna wire and rig up the LED lighting tomorrow, once I get off of work. I might also go see if radioshack still sells LED's and replace the bright as hell blue power LED. :P

Got the metal fittings put on the CPU block and everything is up and operational. :D
Clever wire routing:
Everything is installed and ready to go:
All that's left is to install LED lighting, get a rad grille for the top, re-sleeve PSU wires with paracord, and purchase/install my missing top usb / headphone ports. :D I might even get some taller case feet for the bottom fan. Also I could use a RAM upgrade. :p
But before I dive into all of that, I'm gonna play some new games. I just loaded up my steam account with Brink and Deus EX: Human Revoloution. :D

Update: Got a new keyboard, and my case is wearing a hat. :D Well it's not much of an update, but I really love this keyboard. It's a big improvement from my beaten Saitek. :p
