One thing this thread reminds me is being grateful I am a stock size. I have no idea how the OP could entertain sizes from 58-63 but having seen some of his setups in the gallery, these aren't faster backwards shopping carts. 30 frames seems excessive over just spending some money to get a fit but we all have our indulgences.

There's only one or two that were really not within the fit range - the rest could have worked, but weren't just right for one reason or another.

One lesson I did learn, or at least am trying to, is don't get OCD about everything matching as far as finishing kit, group, etc. until you know if you're keeping it long term. Not that big of a deal, but did add hassle and expense.
