I like this. Actually that's more or less what I had in mind making an earlier post for the female Turians. It certainly would help distinguish them from the males. And making the females more "spikey" and plated is reasonable, while at the same time not resorting to "girly" tropes like longer fringes/hair or feathers.

Wow here's an idea!
Stick with the original concept art! Seriously this would have been fine, and this is what'd I'd have expected Bioware to do. It fits with the descriptions so far given in-game by male Turians, and they still look like Turians.
Besides Garrus little joke of "Reach vs. Flexibility" suggests Turian dimorphism is similair to Humans. A.K.A. males taller (longer reach; height means longer arms, etc.) females more flexible (doing splits is not comfortable for most men) and females have supportative waists (again another "human" thing).
Really if it's difficult to make female Turians distinguishable I'd say maybe remove/shorten the mandibles. I mean if we're doing the whole bird comparison thing:

Is this Garrus's Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Granpda and Grandma?
(Again my point still stands females would have fringes, just more or less "shorter".)
