should fit but I can't swear to it.
as for the screws, I'd just use washers or hammer the stripped holes flat then weld over them and re-drill and tap new holes the right size

kiki, im askin u since I cant get a hold of them. They have the door and front door for sale but Its for the newer model case. Mine looks exactly the same except for the antec logo on the plastic grill. Will the door and front fit mine. It seems like they didnt change the case at all. Also my powersupply is only being held by about 2 screws, the holes are messed up and the screws wont fit in em (holes to big) I cant find a screw that will fit em, should I try and tap the holes out to fit a bigger screw or use self tapping or what?

yes
antec sells individual replacement parts and panels.
good cases.

the hole saw fits in a drill. the hole saw is about $15. the arbor bit for it is about $10.
you can buy one at any home improvement or hardware store.

didnt have access to one, I cut the full square out except I left room for the screw holes lol. Do you think Id be able to order a new side. Its a Antec fulltower case.

you should have used a 3" bi-metal hole saw and a de-burring bit on a dremel or air jig to smooth the cuts for 80mm fans.

Im pretty sure guys on here mod their pc cases am I right? I cut 4 fan holes in the side of mine but the cuts are a little off, I was wondering do they sell like rubber stripping I could put there to make it look better and seal any leaks? Or could I use silicone gasket?
