The only thing I would do is take the screws out that hold the trim rings, this is if you can, the I would run the router around the rings to give yourself and groove to staple the fleece too.

Looks good, I would recommend laying up some fiberglass on the inside (2-3 layers) before you stretch your fleece. It will be easier than doing it

later.This way your inner box and supports will be good and solid. Keep us posted.
