You can always add these;
How do you guys figure to route the power to the wheel spats, or whatever they're officially called? Those pieces have to be easily removed to facilitate tire changing and access to the brakes, etc, plus they move in all three axes. So what's the game plan for wiring things up to them?

They are "Covers", others use spats or skirts, depending if the car is male or female as used on the G1 Insights.
A simple disconnect plug should be ok for the wiring, when you remove the tire cover for any maintenance.

You might want to consider a waterproof Molex connector and perhaps a braided metal expandable sleeving to run with the brake line between the main body and the wheel fairing. The metal sleeving should provide adequate protection to the wires.
