The Wilwood e-brake cables don't include or need a circlip at the caliper. They stay in just fine. Have installed those brakes on a couple builds and driven them a lot of miles over several years each. No issues.
Your Wilwood flex line kits included with you select the Wilwood option should have included the angled Wilwood 220-6412 1/8-27 NPT fittings. As in your info from Wilwood's site. Mine did every time I've used the optional Wilwood brakes. If missing, that's on Wilwood. I know it's maybe no intuitive, and of course hindsight is 20-20, but with the optional Wilwood brakes you don't use the standard fittings from the kit.
Looks like you have the Forte front sway bar sorted out. A little unfortunate design and timing though. For a number of years now Factory Five has been installing a bracket on the Roadster chassis for a front sway bar. That's what the two holes are behind the tie-down. Their version bolts right up. Looks like the Forte one is designed for the past when there wasn't a mounting bracket from the factory.
