This is going to be interesting. 

These cases are built to last and very mod-able. I've wondered why there's not more people on EVGA with these cases. I have a couple of these in progress, one using the MoutainMods tray and another that I did the CAD work for. Good luck.

Thank you sir
hard to tell from the pictures so far
But once I get it back from the Powder Coaters 
and get the Accrylic MB tray mounted inside it should
Start to come together

I had looked at MoutainMods before i bought this conversion, but
"The Laser Hive" makes their MB tray specifically for the G5 Mac case
so there's no guess work or even measuring
The Laser Hive's MB tray uses the Original Case screw mounts for perfect placement
Also it's clear acrylic MB tray so I will light it up with LED for a cool glow.......

+1 for the name as well

thank you sir
I struggled with many names
Before I came up with this one
I'm leaning towards a Classy MB so was going to use one of these names

#1 Classy Mac
#2 G5 Classy
#3 Applefied

But I'm glad I went with "Bad Apple" ;-)

Great name and project!! There have been a few G5's mods through the years. I like how the parts are specialized, so there "should" be no fitment issues. Looks like a fun project, hope you enjoy. Looking forward to updates. 

Going to be nice I'm sure.  Looking forward to the "in-progress" and then the finished pics...

Niicee, apple users would be jealous of this :D

Certainly looking good so far...

Thanks everyone..........
 
Small Update
Got the Glass in and Tinted it Red using Red window tint
I will be adding one more layer of Red Window Tint to make it a bit darker RED to match the Deep Red Case

 

 
 
 

I have something in mind for the Front of the Case
Ive been in contact with Nateman to see if he can help

If it works out, I may have a Reservoir font panel like the picture below



 
More to come

I really like that shade of red with the black.  Looking good...

This is so sweet! I've been wanting to pick up one of these cases for some time now. They are just too pretty

Nice progress so far. The colors are great! I like your idea for the front, I bet Nateman could make whatever you want. 

Thanks Guys
I really appreciate your support !!!!
 
**UPDATE**
 
I have decided to stay with X99 platform....................
 
I went with the GIGABYTE ULTRA X99 G1 for it's aesthetics & LED's Everywhere !!!!
Maybe someday EVGA will offer these aesthetics.......Hint, Hint ;-)
The MB fitment is perfect using "The Laser Hive" MB tray and brackets

I have also started working on the Front panel
As you can see I have cut a template of Black Mesh (temporally, Zipped tied in place) that will work as a support for the 280mm RAD and fans
The glass will go on "Stand-off's" in front of the mesh with the graphics installed and lit as shown in previous pictures
Still much trimming and filing to do but you get the gist !!!!

New EVGA 1000W G3 on the way.................;-0

That is an excellent design. Great job! 

Really looking good...
