Could I see some pictures of the custom apron from Pinball Refinery for your ST-Pro, either in blue or black.
I can't decide on which color to get.
Thanks
Yep, there is a black one, it's not pictured on the website but Gio e-mailed me and told me there was one but didn't have pictures of it installed on a game.
Quoted from MustangPaul:I bought the chrome one but haven't had a chance to put it on yet.
oh man, chromed, i'd like to have that.
is this the same one sold at pinball life?
I gotta say, from a pure spectator stance, that black looks bitching. Would like to see zoomed out pics of the whole package.
Does anybody have the blue apron with the stock black lockdown bar and rails? If so, can we see some pictures. Thanks
Quoted from mcfly:are these easy to put on ?
Well Hwawonyu could do it so it can't be that bad. (joke)
Still looking for someone who has the blue apron with the stock black rails and lockdown bar. Pictures?

I've got one on it's way, I'll take pics when it's in but it could be about a week or so.
Thanks Disloid, look forward to seeing the pictures of your blue apron with the stock black rails/bar.

Mine comes in the end of the week . . . I'll be putting it in this weekend. I'll get some pics as well.
Thanks gjbwalker, look forward to it. If you can, please take a few pictures from a few feet back so you can see how the blue apron looks with the black rails and lockdown bar.
I didn't put the stickers from the other apron on yet . . . I'm not really sure if I want to just peel them off yet for fear of ruining them, but I guess I'll have to sooner or later.

They come off easy. Just take an exacto knife lift a corner and carefully/slowly lift up the decal. I've done it before it was much easier then I thought it would be. If they need to be cut to fit I would cut them directly on the plastic apron and then peal off I did that for my XM and it worked out great. BTW I think it looks great hope you love it.
A little off topic here, but I need a better way to print out my cards. After looking at all the others, mine need some work. Glossy Photo paper?

You can also make sure you size them right then just go down to CVS and print them out for like 60 cents.
Thanks Dude. I do love it . . . great mod. I think I'll go play it a little before I do anymore work.

I think that's worth it.
Anyone know why some people get the ST Emblem and others get something else? I think mine is the Federation Symbol.
Thanks for the pictures, how about a few with it powered on, love to see what the federation symbol looks like lite up ?
According to Gio at Pinball Refinery, the aprons with the Star Trek insignia/emblem were printed out backwards in error so the corrected ones will be back in stock in a few weeks.
looks good , but i'm wondering if it would fit in better with a blue lockdown bar, can you buy these also ? I did not see them on the site. Otherwise black does blend in better in my humble opinion. So I'm still not sure which one I will order as it depends on whether you can get the blue lockdown bar to fit in with the blue theme.
Enjoy your game .

You can buy the full blue armor sets on the site. If you're interested in the individual trim pieces, PM me.

Mine finally arrived and I fitted it yesterday. All I can say is wow! It really brings the lower end of the table to life with bright flashing blue and red LEDs in keeping with the rest of the game. I'm loving it.
I would say that it doesn't matter too much what the flashing image looks like, you're not really looking at it when playing, you're just aware of loads more bright LED bling near the flippers. It enhances the Photon Torpedo firing, makes you feel like you're actually launching something from your end of the table, and it goes mental with the spinner The red and blue also flash together in certain scenarios.
I would also say that looking at the pictures above makes it seem very 'contrasty' whereas the blue apron actually blends in nicely. I guess most home pin locations will be fairly dark to cut out reflections, so unless you think the blue badge already on the locking bar stands out massively on your machine I don't think you'll have an issue.
In fact I think you might be disappointed by going for the black. Hope this helps?
