It's odd, the skin has a mark, but it dos'nt show up. And I thought you were supposed to use black ones.

the skin doesn't show up in game? weird... did you check you maps folder?

the red extender is basically the black extender. Some people don't use them because black extenders usually look better.

zoom right in (I sometimes use the close zoom in trick) and slowly rotate your black extender, each little turn is 10 degrees

so 9 = 90
18 = 180
etc

its not that hard if you give it a try.

It really depends of your bot's color scheme really.

chassis wedge looks too steep, and the armor looks sloppy. I don't think you need a third wedge either.

Yes, you can. Check out Hot Wheels in the exchange. You can have your armor placed at 45, 40 or even 30 degrees if your chassis wedge is shallow enough.

4 Words (To Choke Upon) uses 45 degree baseplates, so there is no excuse saying it's you can't fit it.

Get rid of the pinks.                             
Put the extenders for the razors like this  []---

Asymetric, hence not good especially for a popup.

Use only 20cm extenders for the razors.
