She's lookin supa sexy! Is removing side rails on older SS Williams pins complicated?!
Nicely done, looks great. I think this is the first time I've ever seen a two-tone coin door that actually looked good on the machine, I normally am not a fan.
I swear that purple looks like it was designed to match BoP. I have matched colors before but that one is so damn spot on its crazy.
Greg how do you like the subtle red flake in it?

The wide ones without the nails (system 11B starting with Space Station and very early wpc) come off just like the thin WPC rails. Just a 1" strip of double sided tape. Use a sharpened paint scraped slid under the rail to separate the tape from the body.. I was worried that it would be 3" of double sided tape but it was still the same 1" width and came off the same way.
Earlier rails (Big Guns and prior) that have the carpet nails that you have to first pry out a little and then twist out with pliers, which is hard to do without either ruining the nails or scratching up the rails.
Ted,
PM me what game you wanted the legs for again? I have to place an order tomorrow. I think it was for scared stiff but im brain dead ive been doing so much lately.

Ok thanks kbliz.....all my other ss machines seemed to have all those carpet nails...except for BOP. But there is one larger looking bolt/ nail at the front end of each side rail. And I didn't see anything on the inside of the cab on the opposite side. I'm sure it's pretty simple but not as simple as just prying away at it....as you will need some patience and take your time to not mess things up in the process ie with the paint on the cab and the rails themselves.
I appreciate the info.

That is one beautiful BoP...
For the rails, I posted how I did mine over at http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/tech-replacing-bent-side-rail but no staring at the tata's, just the work.
