Did you ask Westone for a replacement vault (orange box)?
Metal shell will probably add some weight, and typically IEMs with metal shells are bigger in size (relative to a number of drivers). Again, I'm just guessing, but have a feeling metal shell with 8 drivers would be a lot bigger than a current W80.
Didn't bother getting a new vault, just used a velcro tie around it.
Metal shells would make it heavier and bigger but I think the denser material would improve clarity.
The in-ear pictures you posted are appreciated it shows how small the W80 is which is a good thing. I don't want to look like Uhuru from Star Trek.
