This is how I did mine. T strap elastic underneath, mounted with velcro, then an elastic loop to cover the gap just like the screen used armor.

Mine are crucifix shaped. Basically I have a piece of Velcro on the end of the top part of the cross, this stick to the underside of both parts of the armour, I then wrap the fabric around where the cross part of the strap ahs 2 poppers on which connect the front and back. I then have about 10mm of black webbing sewn on the end of the cross which hangs down and I popper my shoulder bells to it

I used a snap plate: I've got a strip of velcro between chest/back (just like the instructions with SC armor). I used white nylon webbing (like the belt) to cover that gap (had to put some black duct tape over the velcro so it didn't slowly rip apart the nylon webbing every time I took it out to refit). I put a heavy-duty snap thru the nylon with a piece of styrene inside for strength. That snap matches one on a separate piece of elastic that has velcro for the shoulder bell. The snap lets it rotate a little for more movement without the "crunch" of velcro trying to flex. It's a little more work, and it may not be as accurate, but it's all hidden so you'll never notice once it's on. I can take pictures if you want.

I used a white plastic bowl with straight sides I got from the .99 store to make a "bridge". This bridge conects the front & back armor. I placed some velcro on the underside of the bridge to hold my canvas covers. My covers wrap all the way around making a "9" & secure with velcro.
