So i got this really nice shadow a few months back and it was in amazing condition but terribly dirty. So i started cleaning and some how i completely stripped the play field and was like. Well shit guess im gonna do a restoration. So im on the final stretch and i just wanted to share and see what you guys think for my first ever high end job. Heres a list of everything added or done besides the usual shop stuff. I did go through and replace alot of screws etc with stainless steel. I hand polished all the ball guides to look like the original brushed stainless and I powdercoated the trim a high gloss diamond black as well as some inside cabinet parts. I did every single exterior bolt as well. The gun is black nickle plated and i bought some faux pearl stock online and used a mill and some hand work and made these beautiful new grips. Cabinet has been redone and has some great new decals on it. I installed stern metal cab protectors as i was advised. Also installed a few cliffys even though this is an excellent playfield. I don't think im gonna keep this sadly i enjoyed working on it a ton. Wire forms and ramps are brass plated with new stainless steel ramp flaps. New mini playfield as well as full brand new cpr plastics. Decided to replace the flasher caps to more appropriate colors and all new titan rubbers. Heres a full list

New mini playfield
New CPR plastics plus extras
Aurich package plus original
Full leds plus flashers
New color appropriate flasher caps
City scape backboard decal
Art blades
Brass plated ramps and diverters
Brass wireforms
