Is there any place/site that makes customized computer cases? Like you add your own logo and stuff, thats for a reasonable price?

just get some spraypaint.

Yes, there are some, but I don't think the price is reasonable
I've heard auto detailers will also sometimes paint cases for a fee.

I just went there myself haven't been there in a couple years. Guess it's flash now. They still have the gallery though. What I always did though was clicked on desktops and then did the customization. If you follow through on it and say you have a high budget I think they start off your customized computer at around $18,000 with plenty of options to add to jack up the price even higher.http://www.falcon-nw.com/config/build.asp

$18,000?

All I want is a customized chasis, not a whole system, and for reasonable price. LOL, $18,000 maybe reasonable in Bill Gates eyes.

I searched googled first, and I came across cases that weren't actually customizable and if they were, the cases were upward of $300. Thats why I'm looking for a vendor that makes good, customizable cases for a fair price. When I can get a chasis for $50, a $300 is way to high.

Tom's Hardware reviewed a firm that lets you / helps you build a fully custom case right down to the blueprints. But the price was insane. I don't think it was $18,000 but it was definitely at least four figures.

My best advice to you is, search long and hard for a unique case you like. Unless you're friends with a machinist or a metal worker, you'll have a hard time making a cheap custom case.

Edit: The company is Protocase (http://www.protocase.com/), and the build that Tom's Hardware (http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/01/25/making-a-custom-pc-enclosure-with-protocase/) came up with cost them $1460.

I built my own out of MDF. Of course, it doesn't look that flashy, but then that wasn't what I was aiming for - I wanted quiet. It's perfectly possible though.
