Default Acrylic case for external WC setup

So...I've been looking into getting a new cooling solution since I sold my Ultra-120 extreme and was looking at a compact WC setup. However I decided to build a External little box which will work as my complete WC setup.

I have a few questions though

NOTE: THE QUESTIONS GETS UPDATED ONCE A NEW ONE ARISES

Don't use plexiglass, use Polycarbonate instead, plexi cracks so easy and scratches easy too. Polycarb is more expensive but much easier to work you can get it at mcmaster.com
