Hey Guys,
Finally my first post of my modded Xbox 360.
IPB Image
Cut out a hole and inserted XBOX 360 themed Grill and a 80mm Silver Steel Mesh Filter.
IPB Image
Took the XBOX emblem from my stock remote control since I purchased the universal and the clear ring I didn't use from a replacement controller shell. Drilled a hole and inserted them.
IPB Image
I also used Talismoon's PSU ENERGYZER with a kick ass 500W Ultra power supply I modded to fit into the Xbox 360 theme by adding another Xbox Grill. I know there are mixed views on the Talismoon PSU ENERGYZER but it works awesome with the Ultra PSU and I love it.

To my surprise the DVD drive is actually quieter working off of them and I can power all my mods inside of the Xbox, as well as giving my Talismoon Whisper fan a 12 volt source without tapping into the Xbox 360 power. I even have my hard drive powered by it.
IPB Image
IPB Image
Added a bit of cooling mods. Not much because by luck, knock on wood, my 360 runs quite cool. Will later add heatsinks to the chips.
IPB Image
Added LED's but kept them subtle but effective.
IPB Image
Lastly I internalized a wireless adapter. Didn't have much use of USB ports in the front and then had the back one free so I stripped down the USB connector on the adapter and wired it from inside.

That thing is amazing. Everything is very well done you'd assume it came that way. Absolutely stunning.

Thanks a lot. Had mad fun putting it together. Plus not done yet. Next I'm going to do a 360 HD-DVD player add-on in the same theme. Plus I might do a little bit on a MS 360 Steering Wheel.

Did you use green smd's in the RoL? I want to know how they compare to the stock ones, I'd assume the same applies where the stock one is a lot duller and not as nuclear of a green.

No didn't get to it yet. Waiting to do the HD-DVD player first then I'll get the Rol to match better later on. Don't like soldering so I may get Llamma or someone else to do it for me.

I used the Silver Steel Mesh Filter in place of the silver on the 360 logo. Looks better in person. Can't really see the silver shine through the pictures. Plus it actually turned out to be functional, it lets out some of the hot air inside.
