Just thought i would share my first console case mod i have done many pc case mods in the past but this is my first console.
Its pretty much a cut top of the 360 with plexi glass underneath and 2 blue led fans an led strip i made, both are wired to an external 12v adapter with an on/off switch.
I'm not finished with it yet i plan to cut the dvd tray open so you can watch the disc spin, clean up my cuts around the dvd drive area (very hard to cut round shapes with a dremel)
Also on a side note i made these fans for a friend who was worried about over heating but didnt want to void his warranty, they worked out so well that i ended up making about 5 or 6 for other friends and my self.
Since having these fans my stock cooling fan on my 360 has not once turned to 12v mode and there much more quiet then when my 360 did go into 12v mode befor the fans.
I was thinking about making a few and trying to sell them on e-bay or what not but well see.
Thanks for looking let me know what you think!

I like the window in that "blue" box. I'm just thrown off by the fans being on the outside. Finicky, I guess.
I did a handful of 360s in this thread.

i was at first going to use a smaller fan and have it inside the console i had it mounted and i just didnt like how it looked and didnt seem to pull enough air in the case. kinda went function over fashion in that area but im pleased with the results so far.
