The Mantis Dual 5015 is a fantastic toolhead with very low weight and insanely powerful part cooling. 
I made a front plate for it that clamps onto the hotend cooling fan from above and below. This neatly covers its screws, giving the whole thing a very clean look. 

This project is inspired by the AIO Mantis - which sadly seems dead and only provides a broken STEP file which I couldn't get to open. So I took the idea and re-created it from scratch, adding a bunch of changes.

I incorporated a very basic LED bay, allowing me to glue in two Neopixel Sequins for RGB-controllable nozzle lighting. Gluing other types of LED in place should be possible too. Perhaps I'll add a more sophisticated slot in the future, but for now this is working very well for me. The bottom of the clamp has a slot for a cable binder, providing some basic strain relief for the cabling. 

This version is designed to work with the Mantis' long air ducts (for Rapido, Crazy Volcano & similar hotends). I have not tested its fit with the shorter duct versions - it might be slightly too long for those. This is still a work in progress, once I am satisfied I finalized the design I will add versions to work with any of the available lengths of air duct. Feel free to message me if you can't wait :)
