Put a baffle plate in between the two fans to divert the airflow.

Ideally if you are fitting one fan at the front I would situate it at the bottom, else the cooler air will get sucked straight out of the exhaust fan that you want to put at the top.
As mentioned heat rises, so the top fan would be an exhaust. The way my case is setup is there are 2x 80mm intake fans at the bottom front, one on top or another, one 80mm exhaust fan at the top in the middle, 2x 80mm exhaust fans above the slots at the back and 2x 80mm intake fans at the side towards the back. |

I don't have anywhere to put them at the bottom, So I'm just going to put one in the front, it'll be easier too.

Put one on top. It will work better. Not to mention cutting your case isn't going to any damage (if you do it careful) Just make the edges smoother and maybe put a screen or something.
DO the top though, it will help more. |

I'm going to for the front fan, I have an exhaust fan on the back and I don't have any cool air coming in from the front.

Right, So I now have a 70m hold cut through two drive pay panels, thanks to my girlfriend's Dad.
Now, I just need to buy a fan and drill four 4mm holes for the screws.

Here's the fan hole without any of the holes for the fan screws cut yet, I'll be getting a fan pretty soon.

That look realy nicely cut . How did you cut it ? With what?
Ive planned the same thing - just bought a 12cm blue led fan along with a fan guard from tekheads today, gonna cut a hole in top of my case for it. So yeh, what did you use to cut and get such a nice finish? Thanks BTW i have a clear antec 80mm 3 pin fan that i used for about 3 hours if you want it for like a pound (for posting it) if you want or a 80mm hiper green fan if you want. Dont need em now that i have new case - no room.
