A different version of the bracket is not necessary unless you’re using cards with a blower style cooler. You can simply install the fans to blow front to back. Almost all aftermarket cards vent air air in all directions axially so as long as you’re moving air past the cards to take the hot air away that’s all that matters.
I still maintain that front to back airflow makes the most sense. This is a case that is designed to be installed in a rack, and ALL rack mount setups should be pulling cold air from the front and exhausting it out the back. Unless you install this in a rack backwards, and then that just seems silly. Plus it’s a good idea to maintain a dust filter in my opinion
I solved the issue of the front fan screw heads by simply removing the plastic shroud holding the dust filter in place (the suction of the fans is enough to hold the dust filter in place). I didn’t want to move the fan mount back because I didn’t want to sacrifice cleanrance since I have 1 card that’s over 11” long and I also remounted and kept the center fan wall for extra airflow.
These are just all my preferences and thoughts for others to consider. I’m not dissatisfied with your product at all, I’m actually very happy with it. I purchased it knowing most of these things ahead of time. I saw that you were no longer selling the reverse GPU Mount, but I knew it didn’t matter anyway so I bought it as is and planned to make whatever modifications necessary.
edit:
pic of the case with fanwall back in place. you can see why it's necessary to keep the cards as far forward as possible. can't move the fanwall further back because of clearance issues with the PSU cabling
