Codegen case and Asus board

I know this is off topic, but I'm not sure where to post.
I got a codegen case via mail order, and I've never seen anything like it.

I got a codegen 6066 case (here)

The front plates are designer. I think you are supposed to take the front
plate off the floppy disc and cd rom, which I've never done before and use
the front look of the case. Does anyone have any experience with this? If so
I'm curious if you had to take the plates off your peripherial devices, and
how you mounted them in the cases.

Thanks
