C11 Mods

Been doing some major surgery on my C11 with some help from a mate for machining a few things. I added a couple of handles, 3 mirror locking bolts and fitted the back of the mirror with 3 corresponding leveled aluminium plates sealed with steel compound on the glass. Also mounted 2 fans with a 12V DC jack input.

I'm about to flock the tube now. Is there any point flocking the inside of the baffle tube right down to the focuser? Or maybe just spray paint it?
I've noticed it's threaded all the way and picks up light on the edges of the thread.

What do you think? Overdoing it?
Comments/tips most welcome. Thanks.
