The Relay Grounds Will be separate and will consiist of an 8 gauge ground wire to the chasis rails and the grounding point on the terminal strips
and the Battery will get a 0 Gauge Ground to the Chasis.
I will also ground the motor using 4 or 6 gauge copper wire as well as grounding straps get ate up over here quite quickly.
Let me know what you think. I will post pictures of it as soon as I am done wiring all the positive wires.

grounding with any wire over 4gauge is stupidly over kill. (no offence) but with the multiple grounding points you will be fine with just 4ga grounds. make sure to go to an audio shop and get the Gold plated terminals to resist corrosion its adds up and gets expensive but in the long run its worth it. about the ground from battery to the chassis just be sure to get some nice multistrand copper wire 2Ga is the best for your application (assuming yo won't install mega baller omg 2000whatt sound system and jdm tyte underglow and 200 gauges all over the dash lol *sarcasm*)
the copper grounding plates are awesome i actually wish i would ahve thought of that. so far it looks good. keep it up!
