I saw that blacked out Addams Family a while back and wanted to do the same, so I did. I used the Rustoleum spray paint and then clear coated to protect it. I think it came out really well, I am pleased at least! Now if only I was cool enough to get the custom sideart, but hey this will do for now! (pardon my mess)

Dang Swinks that almost does not look like TAF anymore.

Jrevelli looks nice.

#9 11 years ago

Nice work. I agree with Swinks, the black mirror blades would be sweet.

That's a sweet looking addams, like he said, barely looks like addams. loving it!

Quoted from inhomearcades:

Very tempting. However, I hear decals are not as durable as the cab art and this cab art in person is in pretty nice shape. I'm torn on switching it....

If you ever wanted to you can make the kits yourself fairly easily. Just get clear flipper buttons and wire in a super bright or flex bulb from the coin door. Saves a chunk of money, if you felt like doing it of course. Kits are nice since they can be convenient.

here is a link to Hot Rodded Pins here in Aus for the full high end restore of the TAF Black with 60 photos and a few custom things. I just supplied the black mirror blades and the matching black mirror lane protector.

I know, I do the same but there are convenient check boxes to mark off you don't want to view topics under that section I've done so with off-topic for example

I've been known to make a snide remark once in awhile, but if I do, I deserve the response I get
