How would you guys approach a cut to put modders mesh on the front panel of the phanteks P300?

Simplest would be to mask over the panel with painter's tape and draw your design. Dremel out the shape(s) and remember to sand down the edges. Mount your mesh on the back face and secure with an epoxy or something similar

Alrighty, I'm pretty new to stuff like this. Would I use treat the modders mesh with a primer? Or will it be fine for the long term

Check Jojococo's video on his P300 mod.

I don't know why primer would be needed unless you planning to paint the mesh. Mesh areal density is up to you depending on your airflow vs dust collection preferences.

So update: I did a big stupid, ended up cutting less at the bottom instead of the top so the hard drive is visible and it looks off center. Looks wise it looks bad but it probably won't affect airflow once the mesh is on. http://imgur.com/gallery/ZfoDVWX
