SP120 LED's are alright: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/JTvRsY/corsair-case-fan-co9050019ww

SP120 RGB's are slightly better: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/GwCrxr/corsair-sp120-rgb-high-performance-520-cfm-120mm-fan-co-9050059-ww

If you want more performance at the cost of higher noise, Jetflos are good: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/NvphP6/cooler-master-case-fan-r4jfdp20prr1

ML Pro's are good if you don't mind the higher price: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/MpBrxr/corsair-co-9050042-ww-750-cfm-120mm-fan-co-9050042-ww

4 pin allows for more gradual control, allowing for less annoying fan noise.

I recommend bequiet pure wings for fans.

I just now figured out my 2 front fans for my radiator are PWM and are high static pressure so I’m good on those, but for exhaust is what I need recommendations for

Use bequiet or noctua high airflow fans for those. (Corsair is loud)

Do any of them have a nice black style? Maybe with red LED?

Depending on how much you prefer to spend, good options include:

PW2: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/M6vZxr/be-quiet-pure-wings-2-120-870-cfm-120mm-fan-bl039

NF-S12A: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/BgvRsY/noctua-case-fan-nfs12apwm

 

Although unnecessary, adding a top 140mm exhaust could help if you want some more airflow:

The Jetflo's and ML120's are 4pin pwm.

They're relatively quiet at high rpm and are pretty quiet at low rpm. The corners are replaceable with different colors sold separately. 

There are quieter fans but they either don't perform well or don't match what you're asking for.

Most led fans aren't great and the good ones tend to have the sense to have white on them since light doesn't reflect well off of black surfaces.

yes and no...i have big fans running in my office as i hate heat lol...but not really ..updated i just put the 140mm std silverstone fan back in as over 24hrs got NO improvement from the 2400rpm ml120 over the i think 1200rpm(if that) silverstone.  going to try the kraken g12 once i can afford an aio cooler and the bracket. But then i wonder you're just blocking one of the 3 front intakes with the aio radiator so your gpu temps are going to go down but overall temp inside case may go up? i dunno..
