spray foam and use matte paint you fucking moron. pick up a paint stir stick at the hardware store so you can scrape the foam nice and flat after spraying the top.';

I bought a piece of fridge magnet material for the top of my 88r. It was sort of grey so covered one side with black pvc tape.
This isn't board relevant is is?';

if you still have the magnetic mesh panel like in the picture, then do >>2784204 on it, and you can easily take the panel off if you decide to change parts or airflow. If it's gone, then do >>2788339. If you just stick the tape or adhesive panel to the case then eventually you'll see dust stuck to the back of it when you look inside, and if you decide to take it off later it will probably leave sticky residue.';
