* The \"yellow\" stuff gets discarded, no? Yes throw it away (you need to unscrew it from the inside - four screws)
* The \"red\" rear element rings gets filed down? Yes as low as possible, actually i unscrew holding ring and glue the back lense in place - the answer for -Ed
* The \"blue\" ring stays but gets shaved for infinity focus like we all do on the 58/1.2? it stays as is (maybe it will need a bit to sand) and take a role of outer surface of original M42 adapter - where you drill a hole for EOS bayonet stopping pin.
* What happens to the \"green\" ring? Green ring has to be thinned by lathe and then you could screw in inner part of M42 adapter (also needed to thin with lathe)
you see all stages of the process here
