Great project! Safety enhancements are always a good choice. That's what motivated me to get my present vehicle which has much greater safety in every category than my previous vehicle.
I once stopped at crowded parking lot to pick up my new eyeglasses where there just happened to be a hotrod show of automobile enthusiasts who greatly modify their vehicles. I wasn't part of that group -- just parked there, but the crowd that formed wasn't convinced. One asked what modifications have I done to it. I just laughed and said the manufacturer didn't leave anything more that can be done better.
… that is all except:
It has heated and electrically adjustable mirrors which are nice particularly for winter driving to ice fishing destinations, but there is no practical way to extend them out. I suppose, if I ever tow a large boat that makes extended mirrors necessary, I might lash a board across the roof rack with mirrors attached far enough out to see alongside the boat.
