inked85 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Posted May 8, 2012 I just received my tk armor. The seller had already started the armor for his body size. The foream and bicep pieces are way to small for my size. How do I fix this?? Quote
darksideemt Posted May 8, 2012 Report Posted May 8, 2012 Are they butt seamed with cover strips? If they are you will have to take them apart, shim them (add armor between the pieces to make them bigger), then put on new cover strip. Only do this on the back sides so that the front sides still look accurate. This is the biggest problem buying someone else's armor, especially if they are smaller than you. Good luck! Quote
dashrazor Posted May 8, 2012 Report Posted May 8, 2012 if for some reason you cant fix them you could order new parts and put them together to fit what make of armor is it? and do you have any photos of the parts? Quote

Yes they are seamed together. Thanks for the tip. Quote

It is Tmc armor. I don't have any photos yet. I haven't had alot of time to do anything other than seeing if they fit. Quote
