Fractal Design R4 to Tempered Glass

Heyyyy,

 

So I want to switch my R4 case to full(nearly full) tempered glass window from the small plastic one it has now, and I have a question.

 

Where can I order a specific size of tempered glass with a hole in each corner?

 

Here is my plan;

I plan to take the side panel, dremel out most of the material in the middle leaving just the outline(basically), then put some paint on the edges to prevent any kind of corrosion, drill holes in each corner for bolts(want some bolts that are aesthetically pleasing, more like just studs with thumb screws on the outside. then put the tampered glass on that way, hence why I need glass with pre drilled holes, I do not want to use any kind of adhesive to put the glass on.

 

Thanks in advance!

somewhere as local as possible because shipping that is essentially impossible.

I would strongly advise staying away from tampered glass
