That looks good and sounds like a great way to protect the leading edges. Where
did you get the SS?

Got the SS online from a manufacturer of sheet steel. It was a 50' roll of 8"cut
off. A bitch to bend lengthwise even though it's thin stuff. Had to use two
angle irons - one on each side - and squeeze together with pipe clamps. I laid
a pipe on the SS to help control the shape of the bend.
Bob, I saw pics of a Lycoming hanging off the nose of your plane on your web site.
I could have sworn you had gotten a Continental.

That sounds like a lot of work but may be worth the effort if you ever encounter
a bird strike.

Another option to get a similar look is stainless steel foil tape:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/15D571-Foil-Tape-3-In-x-3-Yd-Stainless-Steel-/221574057967
I am sure it is not as much protection but it is lighter and more simple to do.
Now put this under it for deicing...
