Kon – My understanding is that this car will be a ‘simple’ rebody, so no IVA is required.
In which case, the MOT rules apply and they don’t seem to mention anything about Perspex covers.

There are a number of builds on here that have passed an MOT with Perspex covers.

And I have a metal stone guard over my lights and that is OK too.
Actually, I’ve just had a very brief look at the IVA rules and couldn’t see anything there either.
( But please check if required and don’t just take my word for it. )

Colin – I’d suggest a quick PM to Kev/
Kapri on Rods ‘n’ Sods to ask about the height of the lights too.
As I couldn’t see anything about the height in the MOT, so this may be an IVA requirement only.
He can also confirm my understanding is that mudguards only need to be fitted if it raining, or the ground in wet (i.e. spray), but need to be carried in case the weather changes during your journey.
Good luck, Paul.
PS
Thanks for the further explanations on how you made the covers, very clever stuff.
