I would say the ofsetting of the indicator looks a Little strange .

Like the aerofoiled tube though

What might look fairly cool would be if the indy mounting bolt was used as the same bolt for the up/down movement on the headlight,

Same as kev, something just looks a little odd about the indicator there. If it could be out sideways...

Also, that tube and the raised aspect looks awesome

I see what your saying about the indicator the problem might be that if I send the indicator out to the side it may foul on the cycle wing.
It's easy to remove the indicator the thing I like most is that I managed to get all the wires through the main boss to go down the inside of the arm keeping everything tidy and minimal with the wiring

I've been thinking similar to you, except like the caterham indicators. However I don't think they will go through iva due to being to far in board. It's worth checking the measurements to see if they are ok.

If I may suggest welding a threaded boss to the tube and mounting the indicator to it like this, you can still run the wires through and it keeps them away from the arches.
