When using partial armor rules the gladiator's armor optimitzation ability doesn't work that well any more.

I suggest to change it like this:

Armor Optimization (Ex): At 5th level, and every 5 levels thereafter, choose one zone except the zone head. When wearing an armor part in this zone the amor-bonus for this zone increases by +0.25, the Max. Dex-Bonus Modifier and the armor check penalty are reduced by -0.25. Each time this benefit is gained it must be applkied to a different zone.

Example:
normal:
Zone: Material (AC-Bonus / Max.Dex-Bonus Modifier / Armor Check Penalty / Weight)
Left Arm: Chitin (1 / 1.5 / -1 / 2.5 lb.)
Upper Torso: Chitin (1 / 2 / -1 / 4.5 lb.)
Lower Torso: Chitin (0.75 / 1.75 / -1 / 3.75 lb.)
Rigth Leg: Chitin (0.75 / 1.25 / -1 / 3.25 lb.)

Total AC-Bonus: +3
Total Max. Dex-Bonus: +3
Total Armor Check Penalty: -4
Total Weight: 14 lb.
Type: Medium
