Hello,
Last week I ordered a Cooler Master HAF XM mid-tower case *non windowed* version. But when I collect my order at Umart they gave me the *windowed* version instead. They explain that there is simply no other versions left so I either don't buy it or keep it.
I kept it and decide that I could maybe modify it or buy a side panel without the windows because the *non-windowed* version has 2 x 140mm or 1 x 200mm fan slot which I prefer over a clear, no-fan-slot windowed version.
The problem is I live in Australia. So when I went to Cooler Master's store (North America) and found the actual Left Side Panel for $15. I wanted to buy it! But they do not ship to Australia!!

I contact Cooler Master via Support Ticket and they suggested to check out their European store instead because they ship internationally.
So there I found the Left SIde non-windowed Panel for 15 Euros. But guess what? If I place an order they would charge me an additional 80 euros for shipping! That is (when converted) ~$125 in total!

I have contacted Cooler Master again via Support Ticket and email. I am still waiting for a reply. But is there a place where I could get this specific panel or even custom made?
Frozencpu is known for their custom mods but they do not have a closed Side Panel for the HAF XM.

What are my options apart from grabbing a tool to drill the case and accidentally ruin myself? I just wanted to add fans on the side of the case.
Thanks.
