Following it would mean indirectly not accepting that Jesus was the TOTAL substitute for the LAW.

No, it has many wise and good teachings. Some of the teachings are very ritualistic, so christians can see symbolic meanings in them, but don't follow them. Some of them are also exceedingly harsh.
Its just that for salvations' sake, if you try to fulfil the Jewish Law you are going to fail a thousand times a day in your thoughts. E.g. the 10 commandments.
This is the saved by grace through faith idea. We have faith that Jesus paid for our sins, performed the spiritual circumcision of the new birth, and also that He sends us His Holy Spirit to help us become righteous. We do study good behaviour and teaching in the bible, but going to heaven is not a matter of putting in a flawless (unachievable) performance.

If He negated the need to follow it, then why did He Himself follow it? Why was He bar mitzvah at age 13? Why was He a Rabbi (one who teaches the Law to others) if it (the Law) was now negated?
Why did the Apostles keep kosher, since Jesus negated the Jewish Law? Keep in mind, they kep kosher AFTER their time with Jesus!
Want me to keep going?

JESUS said HE did not come to destroy (or do away with) the law, but to fulfil it. that law can be summed up in the 10 commandments.

You may believe whatever you want. I'm Jewish and I happen to believe that Jesus was not the messiah, so your question is moot.

We are by faith changed and are in agreement with God's righteousness and his law. God's law is perfect we are not it is the reason for the atonement.

Your question is twisted with false assumptions. You distort Jesus wisdom as he conveyed it! You are the anti Christ!
