I wish that I could use CAD like that...

From a structural stand point, the upper coilover mounts for the front suspension need some bracing. Right now it looks like the are attached to the frame, and there is one bar connecting them to eachother. Imagine taking a hard left turn for instance. You will end up loading up the right upper spring mount and not the left. Plus the upper control arm will be pushing inboard on the right frame mount and pulling outboard on the left frame mount, so both spring mount loop bars will want to fold towards the right, and that lateral cross bar won't do much at all to stop them.
