I built my own, with dual drain outlets. Working with and cementing acrylic is not difficult at all, especially if you have access to a table saw and a drill press. I couldn't imagine spending the big bucks for a 'name brand' item like this. Mine flowed about 1000 gph and was dead silent.
I was thinking about that. I don't like how many are lower on the external side. I don't know what else I would use black acrylic for. I checked and local it is $150 for a sheet of black 1/4" closed cell. I have a Shadow Overflow still in the box but I have seen some post showing them being loud. I thought of making a few and selling them to make my money back for the sheet. Like you said they would be easy. I would most likely make a template and use a router.
 
Im just getting my build done with a modular marine so havent used it yet but build quality looks great and love how slim it is in the tank, ordered it end of November and got it in under two weeks.

Unfortunately, you cant buy something you cant order. I tried to get one a few weeks back, they are AFK, even thier ebay listings say the seller is not at the helm. Not even thier website lets you order.

worth the wait from what I gathered doing research.
 
I have a 60” tank and went with a custom 36” Modular Marine. Couldn’t be happier.
