Sorry homer15...never seen a naked case sold by any vendor (except aluminum cases).

What you might want to try is buy a regular painted case and use a chemical paint stripper to remove the paint. I used to do that with bicycle frames. If you do this, be sure to get a good paint respirator and gloves...very toxic stuff.

Take a look at the Cooler Master aluminum cases.

The Cooler Master will work becuase they aren't painted. Take a look at this one http://www.coolermaster.com/ad/wavem...master_pic.jpg

You can just paint over it becuase its aluminum. Falcon Northwest does this.
