I recently upgraded my threaded rods to 8mm Acme Threaded rods and have a before and after photo. On the left is the 8mm Acme Rod and on the right is the typical 5mm threaded rod. You can see the Z banding and the inconsistent layers on the right.

I would not pay the price that Colin sells his kit. I purchase 2 of the following items on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Then all you need is to print the mounts and your upgrade cost is around $30.00.
What did you have to print in order for this to work?

I was looking at these and thought they would be a good fit.

Also, how did you decide on the 8mm ACME rod instead of a M6 or similar? Like this one...
