should I go back and try to make the caboots work? Or start over from square 1 - I dont want to invest more time and money in something that 501st isn't going to accept

Is that based on the letter posted in another thread?

He sent out an email stating exactly that.

IMO, I don’t think so. With all the things wrong with the MOW boots, the caboots are more wrong. Based on the photos of the MOW boots you posted on the other thread, they don’t look too bad. I think they are salvageable.

JETPACK is finally getting painted

Totally agree with the others, while not ideal and all things considered, the MoW Boots are (as ShortFuse put it), salvageable. I think you'll be surprised at how much a little paint, weathering and adding in toe spikes will bring them.

Additionally, great start to the Jetpack!
