Very nice work! The front and rear valances - are they glass or steel? Did you make them or fab them? Nicely integrated.

Interesting gas tank arrangement - not too concerned about getting hit in the rear I guess...

Both rear and front are made of metal. Yeah the gas tank looks cooler than it is functional... once I get it back on the road I will invest in an ATL fuel cell.

Chrome is actually stainless steel ... so very easy to clean.

Pity you are painting the alloy parts, but each to their own. Nice sheet metal work.
