Blasty[501st] Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Hello, I recently got my Shadow Trooper Approved but while getting it approved, my GML's commented that it was a bit wide. I know it is a Shadow Trooper but I figured since it was an AM 2.0 kit that the guys here would have much more experience. I am aware that the armor kit was made for bigger people but I wondering if any of you AM 2 owners actually thinned the ab and kidney plate to better fit your body. I included a picture to show what I mean about it being a bit wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger[IPM] Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Shoulders look a little large, and if you could post a photo with tour sniper knee plate (top of left shin) facing foreward we could get a better idea of fitment there too. How does it fit you? Is it loose at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank75139[501st] Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I didn’t trim mine. It fit fine on me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does it fit you? Is it loose at all? The torso is pretty loose, yes. I'm just trying to figure out about fitment in the torso area for now.

Frank75139[501st] Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Maybe a side view might help. It’s tough to see how loose it is straight on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger[IPM] Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Also how tall are you? Height and weight would help with any advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank75139[501st] Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Pics won’t show up for me for some reason. But if it’s wide I’m wondering if you were to give it a hot water bath and try to bend the ends in slightly if that would help make it more form fitting. I’m 240lbs so it fits me fine. Was it approved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank75139[501st] Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 I’d say if it’s comfortable and not way too big (which it doesn’t look like) then leave it as is. Or drink and eat a lot so it’ll fit better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
