The Shadow -- decals
« on: July 27, 2009, 07:46:03 PM »
I've seen a lot of decals available for several pinballs, but never seen any for the Shadow.
Is it possible to buy decals for the Shadow ?
I'd like to improve it a bit. The cabinet is quite a bit knocked around and has screw holes and scratches.
I've restored a couple cars before, so i think i'd be able to patch/re paint the cabinet no problem, but seems
you can't buy any decals ect for it.
Anyone have any suggestions ?

Yes, i think i've seen those before, but none are available.

I've thought about touching it up, but not sure if that's a good idea.
It might make it worse.
I plan on putting on new legs, coin door, new glass, playfield clean and plastic set if i can get one
to replace the broken plastics from last week.
I might have to leave it at that.

Thanks for your help.

Seems to be some cheap knock offs out there.
(at premium prices)
A search on the news groups RGP, one guy posted pictures of sub quality decals he received.

I'd like a quality set as well if they come available,

(though current plan is to put that money into more machines)
