Fitting/Cutting Armor? Need Help!

[DT-F17 VLG]

Hello again Spec Ops!

After a ton of work, my Death Trooper costume (level 2) is juuuuuust about finished. 😁 Check out the entire rig (minus boots and undersuit, I was cleaning them!) 😊

That said, it definitely needs some last minute touch ups/fitting. I figured before I took to cutting my expensive armor, I'd ask here first for tips/tricks. 

As seen in the images below, my leg armor is far too long and also does not close around my calves. Should I contact my local Garrison for help (they actually sent me over here for help/tips) or can I re-size myself with some sense of ease? 

Leg armor currently does not wrap around leg. How to I extend the armor coverage? I assume Velcro?
Leg Armor comes down too far over ankle. What's the best wazy to cut/resize? I have a Dremel, but would like some expert knowledge before attempting!

Any help would be awesome, thank you all again so much for all the help!

Rob,

The photos don't really show what the issues are. If you take another photo a little farther away and clearer we might be able to assist you better.

Also, who produced the armor and is it ABS or polymer/fiber glass?

How much do you need to shorten the shins to get them to sit correctly over the top of your boots.

Where does the shin not close around your leg and how much is the gap?

Hey Chaos, thank you so much for the reply! 

Yeah, my pictures are kinda wonky. I will attempt to take better ones tomorrow and post here with a bit more specifics. 

Armor material wise, it was made by the 850 Armor Works and is Vacuum Formed Fiberglass like. 

Again, will post better pictures tomorrow!
