Hey guys, long time lurker (5 yrs). Have probably read every post on this and old forum. All along I thought I could beat this issue, but nope! Anyways I am 178cm at night and ~179.8cm in the morning. I have a 187-188cm wingspan. Now to start I am NOT doing this for GIRLS.... I am doing this because I always felt uncomfortable in my own body. I have always felt legs are too short for my upper body (43% and change). Money will not be the issue here (not that I am rich) so I just need honest opinion on proportion. I am looking for what you guys think will be aesthetically better 5cm on tib or 6.5 on fem. Thanks guys and please no lose weight comments.

-blah

PS: please be open minded as we all have our own issues with this.
PSS: please excuse the black bars covering tattoos
PSSS: options are guichet internals or maybe dr m external tibs

Ya I have always felt I had short femurs for my frame. I wont really know until i get xrays. But LL is no joke and I this is one thing I don't want to become greedy about. I have told myself 5cm max on tib or 6.5 on fem. Even fem I would do 5cm first and see how that goes. If proportionately looks good and I legs feel good I will go for the 6.5.

Thanks for the reply guys. I will get more pics and from different angles tonight. Currently the camera is on a tripod at waist level. Should the camera be setup differently? its an iphone camera.

Btw anyone know if $65k is enough for a budget for Guichet in Milan? I mean everything including accommodations. I have PM'ed Yellowspike and waiting on his response as well.

Ok guys, here are new pics. They are both 6.5cm on femurs. I used an dslr camera set on a tripod at waist level. Let me know what you guys think now.

PS: Peng. yes my wingspan is about 9-10cm greater than my height. I believe I have long arms and big frame. Sitting next to 6'2 uncle our knee height is pretty close. His might be .5"-.75" higher but his femurs are much longer than mine.

Uppland I attached new pics as you suggested with a different camera. Do you mind giving me your input on proportions.

Thanks,
