Since I use filament that isnt from the manufacturer of my printer, I lose the ability to fit the spools inside the the compartment on the right side of the machine. Instead, people will mount the spool on an adapter that requires the removal of the side panel. In my opinion this can have a negative impact as it effectively removes the seal the enclosure creates around the print.

To combat that, I decided to cut through the side panel in two locations. Through the first hole, the filament adapter will slot into position, and will hold the spool. The second hole is for the filament from the spool as its brought into the printer for printing. The upgrades are accent pieces that fit into place to hide the imperfections of my cuts, and to add some nice flair.
