This mod removes all of the visuals of the gorilla arms cyberware, making them appear normal.
I was using one of Void's beautiful tattoo mods called (Lace Blackwork) but I also wanted to use gorilla arms and saw that nothing else was working, so I cooked up a simple patch mod.
Originally I tried using (Subtle Gorilla Arms), but that mod has either decayed with time or is simply incompatible with VTK.
For completely clean hands and nails, I recommend also installing (Ballistic Coprocessor Modifications) and (Metallic and Glowy Nails).

Place the contents of the zip file into your main Cyberpunk 2077 directory. That's it. Yay for simplicity! \o/ Woo!
Assuming you installed the game through Steam your directory should look something like mine:
C:\users\yvonne\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Cyberpunk 2077\archive\pc\mod\##yv_vtk_subtle_gorilla_arms

If you have any bugs first make sure your load order is correct. In most cases the load order of .archive mods is alphabetical, that's why some mods have prefixes. For this mod to work properly, the load order should be whatever custom tattoo you want to use, this mod, and then VTK.
Excluding other mods, this should work:
###_void_Lace_Tattoos_A_armleft.archive
##yv_vtk_subtle_gorilla_arms.archive
xBaebsae_VanillaHD_Arms.archive
This won't:
###_void_Lace_Tattoos_A_armleft.archive
xBaebsae_VanillaHD_Arms.archive
yv_vtk_subtle_gorilla_arms.archive
Neither will this:
##yv_vtk_subtle_gorilla_arms.archive
void_Lace_Tattoos_A_armleft.archive
xBaebsae_VanillaHD_Arms.archive
If changing the file names doesn't work, you can either manually edit the modlist.txt file (found in the same place as .archive mods) or you can download the (Archive Conflict Checker Tool) and edit the load order there.
If the tattoos still apply incorrectly, let me know and I may be able to help :3
