To answer a few questions...

Got the bumper notching covered. I'm cutting them on a mill so that they will be identical.
There are no problems w/ air getting stuck in the upside down cooler b/c oil passes up and down through it anyway. If it were a problem a right side up cooler would have the same problem.
I haven't replaced the wiper bottle yet. I haven't used the thing for the last 6 years so I can really take it or leave it. If I find one <1 gal I will mount it in the forward right corner of the luggage compartment. I'll check out the one Chris posted.
The fuel evaporation bottle could have been removed entirely and capped off w/o hurting anything. It's not so much a CIS thing as an evaporative emissions thing. I decided it was easy enough to keep it in the system.
The oil lines have plenty of room to pass though the rock guard on the right. Chaffing was a concern for me so I put a rubber edge in two places, one on the outside edge of the right rock guard where the line goes through (there is a little more room there than it looks), and the other was on the valence edge where the lower hose goes to the left cooler.
Thanks for the great feedback. I’m really happy w/ the way this project came out. I just need to keep my fingers crossed that it provides the 3.6 w/ plenty of cooling. The 3.0 is loving it, it has a cooler for every liter of displacement.
