Looks good, only thing you wanna be careful of is if you have a big crash can the lipo push up and bend the carbon enough to fall out the front? I'd also solder the wires on flat, but that just me.

I was worried about the lipo coming out the front so im going to put a strip of velso on the pack and on the strap. And i will proberly end up soldering them flat never ajusted it from NIMH

Ash it does look cool but i doubt even velso will keep it in if you have a "moment" i would consider finding a way to fix the front of the strap to the brace, there are numerous ways you can do this, for instance a TC body post either side of the cells and make the brace into a T piece and use clips.

This worked brilliantly.

Put a small piece of plastic at the back of the strap so that the force of the screws pushes the front of the strap down. It lifts out a small ammount but knowwhere near all the way. Ill give it a go if it is a probem ill think of a solution. Also handy i dont have to take the screws out all the way i cant just un do them quarter of an inch and it will slide in.
