In any case, I am really interested in buying one, if at all possible, as I cannot make something similar myself. You decide the price.
Please let me know.

Me, too. TIA.

Quickly subscribed this thread.

I was starting same project back then 2015-2016 when building my hackintosh. My hackintosh is put inside my 2010 cheese grater dead machine. Instead of replacing damaged boards I’m initiated to transform something different.

My design is bit different, but fundamentally same.

Regarding FireWire 800 ports, on my front board is just for cosmetics setup only. It have no wiring since firewire connectivity on my hackintosh supplied from PCIe FireWire cards.

Re purposing with USB type C ports would be nice, but required me to adding some additional housing, light grey ABS plastics would be good.

Hello, any new with this project ? I'll love to get some of this customPCB.

Would be cool to see this happen

Hello, I am guessing nothing came of this project? Would have been a nice addition with a new USB 3 PCI card.

Cheers.

@MaikPfaffenrath idea for a cMP front panel would (slightly off-topic) also work for a rear panel in a "no-cut" cMP/G5 case.

is this project still alive? I am using an old mac pro 1,1 from 2006 as a Windows PC case and want a more modern compatible front I/O but I can't find the latest files to download, only the one from the first post.
