QD-OLED (4k\240hz) install into Vewlix\Chewlix

Got my Gigabyte FO32U2 (P version has DP2.1) last night and installed into my Chewlix. I had a LG 850 series IPS in the cabinet prior which was a really nice monitor for viewing angles and color but constrast was 1000:1 with only 165hz (only 120hz as a multiple). I have another Vewlix coming and needed a monitor for it so I decided to move the IPS display to the new cabinet and install an OLED in my current cabinet for an upgrade. Install was pretty straight forward and the results are really nice. I am still configuring stuff, but the difference has been pretty noticeable already, the extra contrast makes everything pop, 4k resolution adds more room for shaders to do their thing, and the non existent pixel response time looks very nice. Next steps is to get CRT Beam Simulator as it matures into games for 240hz support on 60hz which is 75% reduction in motion blur. I do not have a real Vewlix yet, but I know its slightly different in the mounting area, but I can't see it being too much different, I can update once I get my Diamond Blue later this year.

I previously installed some rubber gasket around the inside of the frame to prevent the monitor from hitting metal, also acts as gap reducer.

Printed a 15MM VESA spacer to raise the connection point for the arms. I had to bend the bottom silver brackets slighly up by hand to clear the back jut out. I cut my M4 mounting screws with a dremel to get the right size cause I didn't have anything perfect on hand. I think 25MM would have probably worked.
