gazmosis[501st] Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Hey there Tyler! Thank you so much for your Centurion Application! Let's have a look! CRL and Centurion Application Requirements: All required photos have been posted. This is yet another case where Centurion photos revealed a concern that could not be seen in the EIB photos. You had noted that RS built your suit which is fine. However, I think that it is just in their protocol to build their suits with extra plastic extending from the sides of the ab plate. This is so if you "grow" you'll still fit. The intention is fine if it doesn't affect the overall look of the armor by causing hardware to be out of place or an improper fit. In this case, it is causing you extra overlap on both sides. On the one side, it almost overlaps a full inch. Anyway, I feel it would really benefit the overall look of your armor, perhaps even improve comfort , and get the left side rivets to the 10 mm (approximately) distance from the seam, if you trimmed that extra material. I drew some approximate trim lines: Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: Normally suggestions go here. These are usually for small, general improvements. I mentioned the adjustment above for it's impact potential on the fit/look of your armor. Aside from the point above, I see no other issues. Your badge awaits!!! Overall, it's just an incredible set of armor ANYONE would be proud to own. 1 Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Hey Tyler almost there sir. A little snip here and there and you'll be right up here with the rest of us. Let us know if you have concerns on doing this, we can help. As Steve has mentioned "Your badge awaits" Quote
tckoolaid125[TK] Posted March 20, 2015 Author Report Posted March 20, 2015 So here is the trimming I did on each side. I used a Dremmel and then sanded the burrs. Pictures with and without the belt on. I hope this will work! 1 Quote
