Time for the other side which created a problem as it is made from 14mm thick steel and it is not available, only 12mm & 16mm which I had both of. my only option was to cut the pieces to the correct size and them mill them down to 14mm. That was no fast process

That's all of the upper plates cut and test fitted.

And a shot of the inside. Interesting point is when I was cutting the original armour, I thought it would spring open but it actually closed on itself so I had to keep a wedge in it so my grinding blade didn't grab and shatter. Every now and then I just hear a bang when I came across an existing crack.
