Getting the seam at the top to be unnoticeable will be a challenge. But no rush here.

dfc38419cc560f1ce58e468ab8b26c03.jpg so we know what these are but how much do you trim off. No clue by pictures how far it stands up off armor.

I had the same question when I did mine.

You trim all of that vertical edge off. Once you do that it should like up to be flat with the outlines in the ab plate

I found the holy grail of build threads for us AM 2.0 guys. Navajo bros thread is so in depth I'm following it for my build.

Slow and steady is most definitely not a bad thing

Nice!

 

How did you get the sides (where the ears go) to meet up with the top.

 

Mine looks like this, and I was trying to figure how to redo it. It's almost like the whole back needs a spacer around it to line up better.

Put the brow trim on I believe is the answer. I put mine on after I glued top and back and left it on never took it off. I used stickers for the traps though.

I believe it will pass considering some of the gaps I've seen in screen shots. Look ok or would you do something different?

I think those small gaps in the ears will be fine mate.

You've done well to get it that close.

 

It took me 8 hours to do my ears!

I was just worried about it not going to where the top of the ear would meet the bottom of the cap. I could keep the ear gap smaller by doing the bottom screw first as per the advise I was given.

Could you not pull the ends of the brow trim down to cover it?

Yeah that was two hours. I got tired. I'm thinking I can also. I'm gonna have a lot of holes I think under them ears though or hopefully it will just require trimming.
