  14. i've got the armor put together using the snaps instead of velcro.i've used shims on the forearms the calf and thigh pieces.i think i've done everything right but when i put the armor on the chest piece rises above the stomach and back parts.it seems if i push together the stomach and back it dosen't happen that bad or maybe i'm just not putting the stomach and butt on right... any ideas?

    shims

    that would be great.maybe a few pics of the completed chest pieces i'm not sure if i got it on right when the back piece hangs over the butt piece it wants to go underunderneath instead of over it.
