First-timer - evolving build

This is my first custom loop, i know it's far from perfect and i'll keep adding to it, changing it and playing around whilst learning the in's and out's of watercooling!
Fun as f*ck but a lot harder than i imagined it to be!

Any tips/comments/critique/burns/roasts are more than welcome, I know I'm new to this and have A LOT to learn still!

Plans:
EK-Classic DP Front instead of front glass panel
swap that eco fan in the bottom for another 360 radiator and corsair LL120 rbg fans
swap the defect SP120 (bottom of rad) for a new one
swap to white cables
Install pwm hub that can handle 12 fans

Maybe:
Swap from 16mm to 12mm cause the EK 16mm fittings are huge.
