I like that the beige of your floppy bezel and CD-ROM bezel match relatively well that of the case. Makes it look natural to the case.
There's an empty case badge indention - plan on filling it with a Pentium Inside badge? You can get these on eBay: download/file.php?id=71989&mode=view

Also, it looks like you have a 1+2 segment LED display. Plan on altering it to read 120 in turbo mode?

i always matching the colors (within the authentic possibilities), the screws, etc. i want the illusion, this is a used authentic computer in a decent shape.
i will configure the display, correct alignment, cable management, etc. just i did so many times, i setup well, and something did not work (leds, etc) 😀 it was very annoying after spent hours with it.

stickers? maybe 😀 i think, this is the period correct version:

That’s ok for a case sticker but is the wrong dimensions to completely fill the badge indention.
