the 'tool arm'. this is a cyberarm attachment that takes 8 capacity (so it fits in a obvious lower arm, or a full synthetic arm), and has all the most common tools used for a variety of technical skills. counts as a tool kit for hardware and cybertech, or armory and demolitions, or the mechanic skill group. tools retract into the arm, and can be used as a cyber-weapon if needed doing STR/2 P damage (less than hand razors, but leagl).

exo-plating. this is a new kind of dermal armor, consisting of a framework that covers several large portions of the body. detachable plates are adde to this frame, provinding superior armor. the downside is a lack of flexibility (reduce maximum agility and reaction by 1, both natural and augmented. also a -2 to swim). If used with a cyber-torse, it takes capacity instead of essence.
the exo-plating framework adds 1 body for resisting damage & calculating max armor. plates may add from +1 to +5 armor to both balistic and impact. essence cost is 1, or 5 capacity. plating is availible in rating 1 to 5. standard plating provides +1/+1 armor per rating. melee armor provides +0/+2 per rating. stealth plates provide no armor bonus, but are availible in ruthium and thermal damping. the different types are not compatable. legality R.
