looks good man.
However, if I may offer a suggestion. I would use wide angle view leds. It looks like you are using narrow angle ones by the shape of the led crown. If you are indeed using narrow angle ones, I would strongly suggest getting 180 deg ones.
If you look at the led from just off center with a narrow view one, the brightness drops dramatically. They may be ok for someone directly behind you, but if someone is just off center to your bike, they probably won't see them. With the 180deg ones, they are extremely bright no matter how far off center you look at them. As long as your not in front of the led's, you can see them.
the good news is that most led's share common dia's, and you could easily swap them out.

Wide angles are just the flat top one correct?
