And my favorite... check for sharp edges and burrs and file them down or tape them up so they don't cut anyone.
A colleague of mine would tell me he'd always have the kids wash and polish their drag car (inside and out, including the engine) before going to a race. It always helped with tech inspection because first of all it meant that the kids had been over the car and had looked at all the little things, but it also meant that when the inspectors walked up to the car they had a positive impression that care, attention and professionalism had gone into the details.
Teams that take care of the little things often have much less trouble with the big things!
