Re: Stormtrooper Holsters
No need to get fiberglass. You can use a cut-up old white t-shirt or white sock soaked with CA glue (aka Super Glue) to fix your crack. Just cut a piece of the material the size you want to cover the crack from the inside of the armor. Then cover it with CA glue. Use a popsicle stick or something to spread the glue and keep the material flat. But be quick, because it dries fast.Zachg56 wrote:I need the fiberglass fabric to fix a crack...and what are the tube stripes as well as what should I replace the ear screws with?

Tube stripes are the curved blue lines on the right and left side of the helmet.
As far as the other MRCE mods go, you'll need to search that out on the FISD. There are plenty of threads on it. I haven't modded a MRCE, so I don't know what all needs to be done.

The easiest is to use white sandable, paintable caulk to fill the chin seam.
For the ear screws you can use #6 machine screws and paint the heads white, or use outlet screws which are a little larger but already painted.
