I like the combination of black mesh and the black plexi, but I think it may add more style to make it a little bit more varied than just two square blocks.
Maybe some triangles or variations of them.

I would do a window just over the motherboard and mesh hiding al lthe cables coming from your HDD area.

I like the two black plexis or the classic big window.

id do i large dark plexi with mesh, but make the opening smaller so you dont see the psu, or the hdd/ cd-rom drive bays.

Something like that yah.
You will have to figure out widths and stuff based on your case. Make the gap between them a little thinner (IE move the mesh to the left) and you might not have room for 120s so 3 or 4 80s vertically might work too.
Also I woud still hide the PSU too.
