Default Raidmax Aztec Mod

Okay, I have a Raidmax Aztec computer case. It's a pretty **** case and I'm probably gonna get an Antec 902 once my next build is complete. I don't want to just trash it, I want to do something MORE! Can any of you think of a mod to do? I don't want any really expensive mods, but don't think cheap as a primary.

Notes:
Top of case is very bare
The area where the drive bays are is VERY boring... just jet black
Inside is white
Right side is very bare and boring

BRAINSTORM, GO!

Price Tag. They make some decent cheap cases. My mothers case looks similar to that one cost $40 free shipping (was on a horrible $600 budget)

I think some cold cathodes can spice up any case. they worked for my generic case. if the case is white get some blue cathodes, if it's black get some green ones. I also modded the side panel to fit a 140mm fan, and although i didn't really do it properly it looked ok and the cathodes where awesome at night time!

It's actually better looking when you get it.

BTW, I already have blue cold cathodes and a SICK blue pattern fan in the back... I'll go grab the camera and then you'll see an edit in this post.

EDIT: Okay, here they are, I like these photos! http://www.flickr.com/photos/4142119...7622734937750/ and also, maybe mod the keyboard? Lol AGE OF BEIGE isn't FTW anymore.
