Where is the best place to purchase new decals for my GNR restoration? Did the machine originally have decals or paint?
I've found them at the following:

or other?
Those decals are the same - Phoenix Arcade makes them.
GNR cabs were originally screened.
hope your cabinet is really bad if your redecalling. Because it sucks to ruin an originally screened cabinet.
My cabinet isn't really that bad to be honest... It probably could use some professional touch up if it would be better to keep the original. I believe the previous owner had a professional painter do some touch up here and there on the cabinet. I would like to have the black paint touched up with some minor wood chips filled in as well.
it's not that bad of a cabinet to touch up. If you can leave it original, you want to go that route. Much more durable and all around better.
Yah, plus it's easier. Decals can suck.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:it's not that bad of a cabinet to touch up. If you can leave it original, you want to go that route. Much more durable and all around better.
Ok... I think I'll go with everyone's advice and keep it as is with a professional touch up to freshen up the black and make it a bit more "even" looking because the black just seems a bit glossy in some areas and not so much in others. Will also have the divets filled in!
Thanks for the advice! It makes sense that decals are less ideal for application and maintaining as well!
