So i think i have everything i need for this.

Got the cheap chinese adjuster, check, i have one of the tops hacked off of one and it seems like it will work very nicely as a cover and give a good look and I will use the actual chinese adjuster bolt/screw in the stock fork caps

I have stock fork caps
I have 11/64 drill bit (drill size for a 10mm tap)
I just bought a metric tap set that includes a 10mm 1.5 pitch tap. (Diameter and pitch of chinese adjuster bolt)

Just need to get to it. might have some time tomorrow to give it a go.
I am optimistic.

Needing to buy the tap set set me back $50 in the end, so $40 for the chinese adjuster and $50 for the tap set puts me at $90 so that is not really cheap, and you could buy cheap adjusters for $90, but IMO you can't think of it that way as i now have a tap set that i can use for the rest of my life given i take care of it. But if you already have the tools i think this could be a good option to save $60-$90 on adjusters

more to come, ill add up some pics to
