Thank you GTX!!! I also re-sprayed the front bezel grill to match the case.

@rjohnson, thanks buddy, we're almost to finish line, I just need PSU and SSDs, and DDR
 
@GTX, flexible primer this time, for the plastic parts, otherwise I have used the SEM self etching primer on plastic without any issues
 
Decided on dual serial for the GTX EVGA 980s SLI bridge so I had to cut and bend new SS tubing segments for entering and exiting the GPU blocks. Here is the Koolance SLI Bridge, GTX Backplate and Blocks

On Saturday I received my DDR sticks, 32GB of Corsair Vengeance. The sticks were Black, so I hit local home improvement store and found a great aerosol substitute paint for the Porsche Gulf Racing Blue, it's Harbor Blue enamel paint by Rustoleum. I'm using these to create a DIY video guide to painting DDR heat spreaders, too!
