Unique and original mods you've done to your Roadster

[Gumball]

There is a similar thread going on over at the other site and I thought that there would be benefit to having one here.

Please post photos and descriptions of unique modifications you've made to your Roadster. Shamless rip-offs are appreciated, too, as sometimes the best idea is one you've stolen and tailored for your own purposes - we just ask that you credit the person who developed the idea in case anyone has questions.

Here are some changes that are unique to my build - all of which were pretty inexpensive (except for the brake fluid cans)

My remote reservoir mod using Girling cans from Moss Motors - made possible by the adapters sold by Lodestone Billet Works (vendor).
