what color is your case and do you want it too match. Plexi is nice, but it cracks fairily easy. and wouldnt the fan be an intake if its on the front

Just bum some extra bay covers from a friend and paint as needed, Here is mine with an 80mm but it is intake, The holes in the covers and door were cut on a CNC machine, I wanted them perfect because I was not going to use any trim around them.
