wow thank you sir... thats why i also ran the rear bars just to combat any little flex these might give from front to back..

I'd be concerned about the amount of stress placed on the mounting brackets, specifically on the outter sides of the mounting holes. Have you performed any sort of FEA analyses on this yet?
I'm still learning about this sort of thing, but I think that with the way the chassis will twist in hard turns, you might consider arching the bars or angling up the mounting points to reduce the amount of torque being applied directly to the shock tower mounting points.
I would have chosen something other than heim joints, but it certainly looks good.
