Is it possible to buy extra side panels and front panels for computer cases?

[Elf_Knight]

I want to mod my old case for a new future build that I might be doing possibly. The case in question is the Fractal Design Core 2300. When I get my new parts eventually I want to mod the case so the front (left) side panel has a window and the right one has a new fresh side panel since the current side panels are badly scratched and dented somehow. I was originally thinking of covering them with vinyl wrap (not sure if that's spelt correctly) but now I want one to have a window since I will be SLI'ing two GTX 1080's for 4k gaming and want to show them off. I was looking at some extra cases and was wondering what case panels would be compatible with my case. For some reason the Fractal Design website is down and is not loading so I can't use that. But I was wondering if there were any websites for the UK or stores in the UK that do this for case modding. I would also be interested in giving it a green coat of paint on along the edges of the front case panel window, on the back panel and on the front case where the disc drive bays are. Something unique and stylish since I am sticking with the green team (no offence AMD fans!). I know that I could just get a brand new case but don't see the point since my old one is good enough and has plenty of room for upgrades and SLI.

Many thanks in advance!

email fractal, I suspect that they'll say yes, or tell you where you can get it from.

I tried emailing them and they did not reply. I will try again though. Thanks for the idea!

The best option is to buy another case of the same and use it for spare parts . extra panels are hard to find for every case and if you order directly from them it will be more expensive than your case because it is a cheap one and not expensive case.

so just buy another and use it for spare parts for modding.

I emailed them a few years ago about a burnt out fan controller (with pictures), they just popped another one in the post.

Thanks! Did not know that web page existed. Very good find! I will email Fractal about the side panels but I might just buy a new case. Recently spotted an NZXT Green case or I might get the Fractal Define S or R5.
