This de baffling looks scary. Is it OK to just remove the baffle or do I need to modify it? I guess I would need to modify at least or, ideally replace it?

Thanks!

as far as i remember i havent read anyone complaining of quality issues after de baffing it. I did it and improved a lot for astro as there is much less vignetting. So i would say you can just remove the baffle, i wouldn't modify it. When removing it, and assembling it back take care to not bend the contacts as otherwise AF will not work ( in case it happens you will need to open it again and place them properly.
