This might be of interest to you Liquid Static, Remove the SLI bridge and cover it in white Di-Noc, Would look awesome and go very nicely with your build and is cheap to do as well

I think thats a great idea! If anyone has tried that I'd like to know how they dealt with the metal nubs sticking out of both ends...

I did it with mine, All I did was file down the nubs so they were barely 0.5mm showing, Put a tiny amount of super glue around the base of each nub to make sure they were secure.
Wait for that to dry and then cover it in Di-Noc and make sure you really work the Di-Noc into every nook and cranny with your finger nails.
I don't have a camera at the moment So I can't show you mine but this is an example of what the end result should roughly look like, Although I would call this a very rushed job so if you take your time you should have a perfectly flat surface unlike this gent who didn't take the time flatten the surface and make it look neat.
Edit:
Oh hey Liquid here's what I did with my SLI fingers, This was before I went SLI though but the principle is exactly the same, It looks a little wonky on the lower right side but that's the shadow from the flash.
I got an old SLI bridge, Cut it into 2 pieces *Obviously don't do that part when going SLI ^_^ * removed the little nubs and then super glued them to a piece of black plastic card, Smoothed and cleaned the edges and then put Di-Noc on top.
It just slips right on and makes bare SLI fingers look a whole lot tidier.
You don't need to use Di-Noc but it's a good option as it makes anything look clean

I think you could have gone away with a 45mm thick rad. You have a little bit of room in the roof, unless its not enough.
Other thing is now you need to get those GPUs under water!
Other than that I really like this build, very clean and subtle

So happy you guys like it! I'm gonna get going on that SLI bridge today....I'll post a couple pics. As to the 45mm Rad, this build was originally meant for a different case, then i got a super slick deal on this phantom.

Great Job!
I like this a lot!
Your build has a nice clean and crisp look to it, I am a sucker for white builds. As this topic is about your watercooling loop I will talk about that first. The tubing is very nicely done, good and tidy. The thing is I would like to see more of the system other than the waterblock and the tubing. Let's get some more pictures of something showing the outside view of the case, some radiator and reservoir/pump pictures, just more viewpoint and whatnot. It's just with how tidy your build is I would love to see what else you have done
The only thing I can say is those cables to the GPU's look a bit awkward I'd straighten them out, but that's just me
