I'm totally with you regarding cabinets and "mojo".  I'd rather leave my Kiss cab the way it is for that very reason.  But as far as playfield parts like bumper caps, drop targets and even aprons are concerned, it's an easy way to freshen up the game without losing the mojo 

I respect everyones 'choice'' as to how they want to keep thier games, but what I dont understand is that we are happy to make a playfield look 'out of the box' again BUT at the same time feel that making the cabinet of the SAME machine look 'out of the box' again......is somehow stealing something away from he games heritage.

This has always confused me
