Hey guys just wanted to share with you what ive recently done with my old Lian Li case..

Both holes cut where cut with a dremel then sanded down for a smoother finish, I then got hold of some rubber window edging from work and placed that around the rough cuts for a better finish.

With the grills, rubber spacers, and screws in place ready for the fans to be mounted.

I also removed the support bracket that originally looked like an X-shape that was slightly obstructing airflow. Now removed with the dremel it makes the hole look a bit more cleaner. Sorry I didnt get a before and after pic of this.

Also now a hole has been cut for the PSU cables to be fed through to the back of the mobo tray to aid cable management.

With the edging..
That's pretty much it, its not much, and it was my first attempt at cutting a drilling into a computer case and I thought it has turned out really well. Thanks for having the time to look at my thread.
Thanks taylor for the helpful assistance and the use of your dremel :P <3
peace out.
