This one got picked a bit early, so its Not very ripe yet...

I’d love to see this case being painted Navy Blue just to make it different!!! It’s so cool to have it in that rough of shape. The possibilities are endless. Maybe red white and blue. Do a flag over the entire case??? Drab Olive with some tank designs on the sides.
Those all sound cool, keep going! More ideas!
Looks like you are only missing the spring clips that hold the lights into the housings themselves like @Jakeracefox took a picture of for you. They should be standard size MR16 clips.
For the upper lights, I purchased these 6k daylight spectrum bulbs, they are very bright.
For the lower lights, I purchased these 6k daylight spectrum halogens, they are also very bright.
-> Looks like the Amazon link is broken, they were:
Sylvania 21488 - F14T8/D Straight T8 Fluorescent Tube Light Bulb
For the Plexiglass, use NOVUS 3 stage cleaner, it does wonders! If its a really nasty scratch, I used 1000 and 2000 grit sand paper, wet sanded it smoother, then following the polishing process.
For cleaning of the case itself, use Spray 9 de-greaser. Doesn't leave a reside, and cleans the 3.0 surface quite nicely.
You can take a look at the finished 3.0 here in @Nucchem collection display. I brought that 3.0 back from a bit beat up for him.

Bought a pack of 20 MR16 clips and only need 4. Anyone else needs one or two, let me know - 1,216

Well, I thought about leather wrapping it, but it doesn't feel like it would work.
Maybe OD green.
I think this would look amazing in OD green!!! - 1,216

Alright. I decided NOT to do OD, its WAY better...
Paint is drying. Having shelves cut, Trying to get the windows polished. Now I'm missing one of the light retainer spring things, the door handle and the magnet stopper for the door. What does it look like?Similar threads
