Well, I did it! I bought an xDeep Stealth 2.0 last night! I am eagerly awaiting it's arrival and will update this thread after I get the chance to dive it a bit.

I built my own harness for less than $60.
I like the look of the stealth wing and it would easily work on a home made harness. I don't currently dive mine with a BC though.
I did buy the xDeep system (should be arriving in the mail today) but I also bought a DR trim pillow and rigged it up like the Stealth wing. I've been considering making my own Razor style harness to use with the trim pillow for warm water and using the xDeep system solely as a cold water setup. However, it may not be needed with the xDeep harness. I'll make a few dives with it first and decide...
I had to google trim pillow. That is kinda cool! It appears to be discontinued though
Looks like it has webbing straps to possibly run it down my back strap or something.
I only dive my harness with a single AL80 slung on the side.
I just ran some bungees through the webbing to mount it like the Stealth, then added a longer inflation hose. I got lucky enough to find someone selling it on eBay. Technically you really don't need a BCD if your equipment is setup correctly but I do like the peace of mind to have 10 lbs of lift if I ever need it.
