Getting a Praetorian - Ideas?

I get my coolermaster PAC-T01-EK Praetorian (Black) tommorow... I have a new Seasonic s12-500 power supply on the way. I already got an ultra dual blue cold cathode kit, a black sleeving kit and a molex remover.

I'm assuming I'll want new fans, but I'm waiting to see the quality and loudness of the stock fans.

Is it practical/possible to mod the case to house 120mm fans? If so, how? I've never done any cutting or anything to a case.

What else would you guys suggest? I'm thinking of getting some of that hex modders mesh and using it for the front grill.
 
you can prolly cut the 80mm fan mounts in the front and place a 120mm there but there is no way you can fit a 120mm in the bak
 
It may be possible to get a 120mm in the front and one in the top with some extensive modification to the front. But the back, it'd be hard to even get a 92mm in there.
 
Think its worth it to put a 120mm fan in the top? Would I need to cut something or would it be possible just to just drill new holes?

Also.. would 1x120mm be enough/better than 2x80mm if both are high quality fans?

Just a piece of plastic...but it'll all depends on how much room it takes and if it'll get in the waye

Btw...how did the SeaSonicS12-500w fit into the Praetorian? I was thinking about the same combo, and heard comments regarding the PS rack on the Praetorian being a snug fit.
