Restoration Complete and here are the bling photos. The work done by @el_timbo86 is simply stunning and the rest of the playfield with the new parts etc really finish this game off. You could be blamed for walking past this game on location, but as you can see, it would have been a really good looking pin as new. But this in my view is the pinnacle of my skillset. I'm really proud of this game.



















Those are the original Pop Bumper Caps. The repros were too light.









Spinner decals were the incorrect version - so the customer added them on later...

Final photos of completed machine. I've loved restoring this game and it takes the mantle of the fastest game I've played. If you get a chance to play this title - don't hesitate, but buckle you seatbelts !

The machine lit up. The backglass is original and is not bad for its condition but it did have some touch ups on the other side.

Beautiful!
If I may, the flipper return lane wire guides are on the wrong side and need to be swapped. Compare against the pictures of the original playfield:

Beautiful job Nino.. as usual!

I only ever got to play Quicksilver once in the past and loved the game play, loved the sound too!
It's another game i always thought i'd like to own some day!

Absolute stunner! Great game which deserves that level of restoration.
