This may be a bit more difficult to do...but I didnt like the idea of that locking/molding strip around my case...1st off it didnt match my color scheme, and 2nd it was just way to big. So heres a tip for all:

Use Automotive chrome trim (or gold for you gold people). It spices it up a bit more, and has a more "Custom" look to it

For plastic cases (such as mine) you can cut the hole, lie the acrylic or plexi directly underneath, mark and cut the glass to fit exactly inside the hole in the side panel, and use a hot glue gun to secure it (or you can use some sort of epoxy...I personally used window caulk).
Then run the strip of chrome with the #M adhesive tape running right along the cut lines

For metal cases I'm not quite sure, but if you were to just mount the glass inside the side panel with epoxy or ect...then run the automotive trim around the edge (on the glass, just inside of the metal) it should give it the correct look.

I dont have any pics devolped of my case yet, but give me a day or 2 to see what I can come up with...but without the chrome trim or window you can view the case at http://case.extreme-computers.net

Well I said I would post pictures of a case with the chrome trim, so here they are...but keep in mind that this case was my 1st...and needs a new coat of paint...plus the clearcoat =)
