Thanks!

They're surprisingly strong for the thickness (1.6mm). I was thinking about using some additional supports for the lipo pack since they will overhang the chassis by quite a bit, but I don't know now. I'm thinking the new dirtguards coupled with the rigidity of the battery tray may be sufficient...

I'm glad I didn't use fiberglass because it would have been at least twice as heavy. The prototype guarg I made with fglass was quite a bit heavier than the Al ones and it wasn't even as big...
