Hi, I am going to build a PC:
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rYLN9W and I have two questions....
1: Will I fit the 2x m.2?
2: I get a free rog front base with this, not that I want it... but will I be able to use it or should I just sell it or something...
I know this is really unrelated to your question about the Front Panel, but you might want to consider getting a single 512GB 600p

It'll cost you almost exactly as much as the two you have, and be a whole 128GB more in capacity.
Not only that, but having more than one NVMe drive will end up stealing 4 PCIe lanes from your CPU(as 4 extra are already handled by the Z170 chipset), and as a result, step down your GTX 1070s PCIe speed from x16 to x8.
Also, on the bulk drive, I'd suggest this(If you need to stay close to your pricepoint), only because I've had so many issues with Seagate Barracudas over the past 5 years or so.

I've had much less problems with Hitachis/HGSTs, as a bulk drive, or even OS drives(that customers have used them in), even the refurbished ones seem to last for 4-5 years.
Of course, if you have they money to spend, and really want a good warranty and even more robustness, I'd suggest a WD Blue or Black; Black being preferred in the case that, if it craps out, you merely contact WD, and they send you out a new drive with a prepaid box, which you put your old drive in, and they send it back.
I apologize if I'm being presumptuous with the suggestions, just trying to look out for you so your 1070 doesn't get bogged down.
I'll leave on the horse I rode in on now >.<
