I need some links or advice on modding an existing case for a new build

atm I have a case similar to the one below (Chieftech Dragon Mid Tower ATX) but without the grill holes in the side panel.

On my old PC which finally gave in on Thursday I had the side panel removed, but won't be doing it for the new build. The case needs grills in the side panel and at the top of the case. Now I'm no DIY expert, so I wondered what the best way for me to go about it would be? Would usng speaker grills be a good idea?
 
Speaker grills will restrict the air flow way too much to be useful.

You can get fan grills for pretty cheap though.

I don't really like fan grills... I just run my fans withought grills of any kind. Way more air flow potential that way.

I use a dremel tool with cutoff discs to cut the holes.
