Already going there...we have plenty of room (sitting at 107 without bumpers or battery) and so are adding polycarb/Lexan to put flashy things like sponsor stickers etc ...and yes safety of all is my first concern (especially the inspectors )

Pinch point coverings are in the works, trying to figure out the best way to cover the sprocket at the shoulder. Was more concerned about the openings in the arm frame itself.

Thanks for the input guys it helps alot!

P.S. Pjohn1959, as a side note thank you in advance for putting up with all the reinspection requests, questions, help and mentoring you do for all the teams at the regional!
