Since I am a dummy and ordered these without realizing these are not SMD-friendly (with the black housing bottom), is there anyone who can direct me towards....
1. A preferred site for keyboard parts (such as cases, PCBs, etc.) with a reasonable selection and stock where I won't get robbed in terms of price? Adding up prices, many build-your-own projects seem to outprice the ALT and CTRL easily.
2. A site where I can buy clear housing bottoms for these switches? I'm not sure if it's common practice to replace individual components of switches like this, but I can't seem to find much online.
I don't mind putting in a little bit of work to utilize what I've bought, but it seems like the current sources I've got could be better. Thanks in advance.

rhpittman314you can't just go buy clear bottom housings, you'll have to source them from other switches.
I would recommend KBDFans, you can build a 60%, 65%, and 75% for a very good price! I have a Tofu65,Brass plate & Weight with Paco's and I absolutely love it.
