bought UN Designs Infinite Horizontal Pump Bracket (no X Bracket seller in UK 😞 )
cut and drill red acrylic to mount SSD to the bracket
Lovely 😉
time to mount the SSD
voilà! hehe 😉
better than x bracket
installing windows...
while waiting for the setup to finish, let start wrapping the mini
Vinyl types used:
Matte Black - body and roof stripes
Gloss Black - arch flares, front/side/rear skirts and window moulds
Gloss Red - roof, mirrors, body stripes, outer rims and my signage
Carbon Fibre - various front-end accents, handles and garnishes
finally Corsair Vengeance Pro arrived
what a beauty 😉

Xilence 80mm Case Fan
SilverStone 80mm Fan Grille and Filter Kit
measuring and cutting red acrylic to hold the fan on the engine compartment
done 😉
that is one messy lighting wires
sleeving is the answer
need to extend all wires on both headlights to reach the base controller,
thus you see it bulging
then sleeve them again 😉
much better 😉 mounted the Logisys board near the windows. above the graphics card
customize licence plate just arrive
wicked! 😉 looks nice
testing headlights...
sweet 😉 😄
testing taillights, so far so good
