Anovos replacement pieces?

[mbura[TK]]

Looking for replacement Thighs. I messed mine up. Anyone know where i can get replacement pieces from???

Anovos does not offer replacement parts, but you do have some options. First I would suggest posting pics of your thighs and explaining what you did incorrectly. Most likely they can be repaired. I've found ABS very easily repaired myself. <br>

If they can't be repaired and I doubt that's the case, I would contact Walt and order a replacement set from him. <br>

But before you do anything, please post pics.

Ron is absolutely correct.  Pictures really are worth a thousand words and I would post up some detailed pics (or at least some info.).

I've seen some reasonably good matches made, but you'll never get perfect. I wish I'd made notes now but I think RS PVC and RWA ABS was reasonably close. I'll go back and research.

 

Though with some effort you can save some pretty serious mistakes, post up what happened.

I have sold lots of replacement parts to Anovos owners. The only problem is shipping from the UK is expensive for larger parts like thighs and torso plates.

Any idea how close the colour match is Paul?

The guys have been happy with the parts. I have been using my 1.5mm gloss ABS which is what I believe Anovos uses. If anyone who has parts from me want to chime in with photos, that would be cool. I don't have any photos to show, unfortunately.

If some one has them send me a PM and I'll put together a gallery post of reasonable matches.

 ANOVOS armor is more of a off white/beige hue when compared to most other armor makers.

I have an Anovos kit and have a Sm side gap, I'm already approved but would like to find a slightly larger kidney plate.

Looking just for that part, and one that will match the Anovos.

So today I received some Troopermaster hand guards that Paul kindly sent me to compare against my Anovos kit as a test.

 

I've used my bucket as a comparison as it's what was easiest to get to.  I've polished the helmet a little when I re-painted the decals.  The finish on the TM is very similar to the finish on the un-polished parts of my armour.

The colour on the two images is very different, these aren't colour corrected images.  What we're looking at is the colours inside each image.

 

I'll let you all make you're own minds up but I think the match is very good.  There is a small difference but how much of that is me looking for a difference I don't know.  I'll try grab a less polished item sometime tomorrow and re-do the test.

It looks pretty close and there isn't a lot of overlap of other parts on the thighs, so it looks good from my house.

Contact the Anovos customer support and tell them that you need new parts. It's possible that they offer to send replacement parts if you can proof that yours are destroyed. <br>

That happened when I messed up my bucket and asked if it is possible to buy replacement parts. <br>

Good luck!<br>
