You can see a lot through the original skirts, which I didn't like. Therefore, I made the fins thicker so you can see less through when looking at the angle. I tried to angle the fins as well, but that one didn't work out because the cutouts for screws would leave too big and too noticeable holes. 

The holes for the allen key at the bottom are narrower, designed at 4mm (vs 6.3mm original), so they would be less noticeable and cut less material on the fins. 

Obvious notes: Keep in mind that all that thickness will make them use ~80% more plastic than the original, with the same slicer settings. You could tweak settings a bit to make fins weaker after the initial 2mm, for example. Also, you'll have less space inside the enclosure, but I personally didn't use that space anyway.
