WOW, thanks for all the positive comments! to answer a couple of questions,
Yes I am concerned about the heat issues from the engine so I am making a reflector/deflector to sheild the lights.
The lights currently are two 9" flouresent tubes behind a piece of plexiglass that I sanded to diffuse the light coming through. I chose them because I wanted the light to "spread out" before coming throught the glass
I did think of try something similar with the airbox but plan on a Volant Cai soon so I figured no sense doing the work. It would look cool though!
No the work bench is still not clean lol
I am on a long change tomorrow so I will be in the garage in the afternoon I will take a couple of pics of the parts as I have them so far and write up what I have done. If anyone has any ideas on improving the overall design or has any sheilding ideas I'd love to hear them.
