Recommend chassis for Dampened Cream Alps

So I recently purchased some Dampend Cream Alps switches. I plan on cleaning, click modding and lubing them. I am on the lookout for a chassis that they can call home that will bring out the sound the best.

What do you recommend?

Edit: should have mentioned originally that they are Dampend Cream Alps.

Click-modding SKCM Creams? Can I convince you to not do so?(We are talking about the undamped creams, right?)
Perhaps I could offer some genuine SKCM White switches? (If these are the damped creams like in Apple Extended Keyboards II, nevermind)

Depends on if you mean damped creams or undamped...

I'd say the lz CLS is a nice housing for Alps with the right PCB and plate

I should have also mentioned that I prefer full-size keyboards even though the CLS does look nice. Thanks!

And I wouldn't mind desoldering a vintage board with crappy switches.

Dell or SGI AT101 is the way to go.
