    Difficult to see how you've finished this but the next step should be make sure the exposed top edge of the metal baseplate is not a sharp edge. Either fold the metal over to create a smooth curve, or find some rubber moulding to cover any sharp edge. Any sharp metal edge will cut straight through riding gear, and you. I had an accident on a bike with a screen made of plastic with a sharpish edge and it cut through denim jeans and through my leg down to the bone.

    Nice job, where did get this/find product? Maybe this is just another form Polystyrene comes in!
    Anyhow, Looking at the height, the four bolts should cope easily with the extra stress.

    I get four sheets from the car front fender of a Renault. I taked it form the trash.

    Maybe i could attach a "T plate" of aluminiun to give more stiffness to the structure

    This could be a nice place to mount an LED spot

    Just make sure you get a well shielded one. That's pretty close to the dash, and could interfere with the immobilizer
