Yes glasses or goggles please. Something in the eye at 50 mph plus is life changing

Top job!!
Very well done - not for the faint hearted!
BTW you may be able to fix the burn mark using some fibres from part of the carpet which cannot be seen. Try a little super glue to hold them in place - might work.

Looks good Stewart, the only thing i would say is if the mirror has an adjustable rake that relies on how tight the screw is it may collapse at speed due to air pressure, might be ok for bit then when you put your foot down, wallop…
You might want to test it by hand to see just how much pressure you think it will take, or do fast test run. If you shorten the stem there will be less wind leverage on it but you then create a blind spot on your left wing and have to look round it. Just my experience but worth a mention so you are not caught unawares, regards john k

One thing I will say is that a folded windscreen makes a very good work surface to put all your tools
