Mine was actually molded REALLY thick, so even after sanding off the extra piece it was still about a half inch thick. I'm happy that Jordy made it so thick 
I wish I had taken more progress photos doing the modifications, but as I said my camera is terrible and I just get frusterated trying to get a decent photo. Here are a few I took early in the process, before I finished cleaning it up. The lower raised part looks a lot thicker in these photos as a result of the blurriness, but I think I got it to match what I see on the original. It tapers really funny too, that was a pain to figure out!
