Definately that way, it looks great.
I'm liking the individual tridents. I think Bod's idea is a winner, would work for either grill design.

First off, I want to thank you guys for all your cool suggestions and opinions. It's great to be able to bounce ideas off you and get feedback.
But I think I'm going to do something else for the front. Forget all the acrylic tridents and medallions, tear drops, and get back to the basics, as it were. Once again I'm getting too complicated and I must reel myself in. The main focus of this mod is the T3 reservoirs, and there shouldn't be anything else on the case to detract from them. Got something in mind that will be subtle, elegant, yet consistent with the trident theme. Will mock it up tonight.

Ok, here's what I ended up with after simplifying things: I'm repeating the trident window shape and
spacing it off the mesh a bit so I can add some backlighting, then relocating the power/reset
buttons and IO ports. That's it. Simple, consistent, clean.
Here's a wide shot to give you a basic over view of the entire case.
I gave it a lighter color in Sketchup so it was more visible over the blue mesh, but I may actually
paint it along with the rest of the case, and just let the backlighting define its shape.
I think it's finally there, but I still want to hear your thoughts.

Love it! It definitely matches the theme, and it repeats the trident shape from the side perfectly.
The thing I really liked about the other trident design was the curve to them, which really gave a sort of "water wave" feel to the front of the case.

Yeah definitely matches the rest of your detail pieces, looks very cool, especially in the silver. I think you could even add the plexi tridents to the front without it looking over crowded.
