This sucks... I have a DR100 setup and everything is looking great.. I have an exhaust fan on the roof that i noticed leaks light in. That is the first problem, how can i block the light from the exhaust fan. I also noticed i now have a light leak coming in the intake vent as well. Any suggestions on light traps or DIY things i can do to solve this problem?

Ducting in general will allow light to dissipate to the point of it being a non issue before it gets to the room.

Easiest (and cheapest) way to do that is with dryer ducting imo.

I built a "chimney" above my roof fan using wire rings covered with black plastic. Pretty ghetto but it stopped the leak which seemed to have caused my plants to stop budding. I'm pretty sure I lost about two weeks because I didn't notice it soon enough.
