Next round please! 😆 I am thinking of changing the carbon back plate to acrylic diffuse plate already even though I missed the first round. Will definitely be in for a couple of them in the next round.
You might have to get that cut specifically for this case. The plates look like they mount into channels on the aluminum frame, so I doubt that normal plates would fit.
You're right. But I assume it shouldn't be too hard to cut acrylic plate. I could be wrong... it would be nice if there is an option for acrylic diffuse plate instead of carbon. But I will buy it anyway, carbon is nice too.
Yeah. I assume that the slots are roughly 1.5mm (the recommended thickness for a metal/cf plate) so you'd have two options for acrylic. You could laser cut some 1.5mm acrylic, which would be far too soft and bendable, I think, or you could have some 5mm acrylic milled at the side down to 1.5mm acrylic. The only issue that I could see there (and this could be the same issue with the full thin plate) would be the possibility that the acrylic could break at the thin edges.
One other idea that I just came up with is that you could do a hybrid/half plate, where you use carbon on the edges, and acrylic in the middle. That way, the carbon could bear the brunt of the force that gets transmitted into the case, and the acrylic could be all along the middle for the looks!
