He mentioned that in a podcast (maybe Head2Head???), but doesn’t own the game himself right now.

Nice magnet protectors. 
Quoted from hd60609:
I just noticed these Anti-Sway target brackets on the Pinballlife website, so I picked several up. These do the trick. I removed the splints (which helped and were the best thing going at that time) and installed them. Didn't take a lot of time and these are solid. Highly recommend these for anyone with targets shifting or just wanting to fortify them.
Are they not held on both sides?
Just looking at that design it looks like they can still lean atleast one direction.
I've had my tron and ironman 3d printed ones on for a year now and they're still good.

Has anyone had this issue on the ramps with it bouncing back? I have attached a video below. On my right ramp a have 2 small spacers and the right ramp works great but the left ramp doesn't have any spacers and I get a bounce back (doesn't fall through the hole right away). Any ideas would be appreciated.

The reason for the two hex spacers on the right ramp support is for the right-side playfield spotlight to be mounted BETWEEN the spacers. Your spotlight appears to be mounted ABOVE the top spacer.
The left-side playfield spotlight is not mounted on the ramp support, so the taller, single hex spacer supporting your left ramp is correct.
On my game’s left ramp, the ball bounces back from the rubber bumper about an inch before falling into the in-lane... not as much as yours, and definitely never noticeable before today. I noticed that the bumper bounces the ball a little upwards rather than directly back. The bumper appears to be following the natural contour on the end of the ramp, which is sloped a little backwards towards the player, and not completely perpendicular to the floor of the ramp. I suggest playing with the angle of the bumper to see if you can pitch it a little backwards to deflect some of the ball’s momentum upwards. That may help minimize those long bounce-backs to something less noticeable and annoying.
Hey everyone. I've been wanting to add something to the bogey ramps since I joined the club. I've always felt that they needed a F22 Raptor to go with the "We've got a bogey". So, I created a custom plastic mod and figured I'd offer it up to anyone interested on here as well. They are digitally printed on PETG plastic, similar to Stern's modern process. Link to my ad below for anyone interested!

I had bounce back on both my ramps.
I put a little foam further up the ramp so it slows the ball before it gets to the bottom. I do this on all pins that have high speed ramps.
The ball gets to your flipper significantly faster.
The ball very lightly touches the foam so slows down enough to go directly down the hole without any bounce back.

The VEs are numbered.
Mine is #98 of 300.

Where are the VEs numbered?
I have the 2015 run.

It's either on the edge or bottom of the playfield. I can't remember off hand.

That’s just the playfield lot number sticker. It has nothing to do with the total run. I think all Stern playfields have it.

And of course, it looks like they changed it in the last couple of years. My newer games look like they went to a generic numbering scheme because people were confusing it. I assume the confusion was about LE games having a different number than the playfield.

This happened when they changed playfield suppliers. little white sticker = CCC , other = who knows (fun playfield)?
