Current Projects chat and miscellany

hey guys
I need some advise on my Atala Porteur Conversion
all started out 3 years ago like this

I stripped the braze-ons and repainted it with Pantone 362c in my HHSB-time to ride it fixed and singlespeed for a couple of years...I got tired of this shit and decided to build a gentleman porteur...so it looks like this:

things to decide:

• original Wingnuts? Dont want my wheels get taken away but they look pretty rad
  
• how do I mount the headbadge I found on ebay.it for 10€? shall I drill holes and rivet it inside or just glue it on?
  
• IMPORTANT: how can I install my brakecables on these Tektro inverse levers without using force and destroy the route because the radius is too tight?
  
• I've redone the stickers in Illustrator. "Handmade in Italy" slogan still missing, but printing them would cost 35€...any good?
  
• is there any minimalistic chainguard that you can recommend? riding Shimano 600 Arabesque crankset
  
  

pretty tight clearances

thanks for your help...
