    Looks perfect for a nice positive airflow case 
     
    You should also include a bottom fan to intake air as well

    Hahaha I had the same dilemma! Just about 5 min ago I took the stock back fan out, moved it to my 3 empty 5.25" drive bays, zip-tied it to the pop out cover things (they already have filters! Hooray!) and voila! 
     


     
    My hyper212+ push pull config shoves air out the back grill with or without that fan in the way so I figured why not! It now lines up perfectly with the pull fan of the Hyper212+ and is feeding it nice fresh cold air. My temps are now at 26c idle on a 4.8ghz  i5-2500k from a previous 30-32c idle.

    Genius.
    lol, I wish they would have a fan bracket in the front but zipties seem to do the trick! I have nothing in that bay besides my CDROMD
