You need to pack out the damper on the rear uprights too David, i believe this would be okay on the front to for the IVA man. It's more just the cosmetic look on the front of the car.

If i can see correctly on the pic i would consider flattening the ends of the tubes where they meet the wishbone plate at the end and welding these fully to the plate either side. After a fair few miles the plate can bend up from 10deg upto 20 - 30deg and put a lot of stress on the Maxi joint, if you fully weld this area, and grind it flush, it will give a lot more support to the end of the plate and stop it bending.
