Can’t second this!
Also made such a mod, covering the resulting hole with a piece of GFK.
The PI is just working fine. Keep in mind that a CM4 is designed to work without cooling.

Adding a alu plate (with some TIM material to the SOC) will result in the alu getting hot to the touch! One can burn its finger touching it.

Having the CM4 on top of the carrier would be beneficial, but there is no such carrier around.
