NEVER want to do this step again, but got the majority of the armor attached to the vest via snaps. I think I took a few years off my life during the process. All in all I could have lined it up slightly better, but I am super happy with the outcome and happy the "scariest" step is over with. The pics may look a little off as I am home alone so had to do my best closing up the vest by myself.

Good news always comes with some bad though. As I was dremeling the back of the center piece to get the snaps to sit more flush, I poked a hole straight through the front. Will have to source a new one, but if that's the worst mistake of this build then I will be a happy camper.

And yes, bathroom mirror pics are absolutely the way to go for build threads.
