    great suggestions everyone. im not sure if it made my decision any easier lol. i knew you guys would have some great ideas. i am checking into the post lights. i have kinda go big or go home attitude with this restore as it is my first machine and restore. i dont play on getting rid of it so might as well go all the way! thanks everyone.

    Quoted from NimblePin:

    Also if you are going to restore the cabinet...
    Make a bigger 'Femlin' stencil set.
    There was one machine a guy had that had "her" on her stomach with back arched- almost the size of BOP.
    It was AMAZING!
    Congrats on the find!

    i am doing the cabinet! thats next it is pretty rough. ithat would be awesome. do you think the guy just cut it or took it somewhere and had it blown up?

    He did one 'custom' with the same color palate as the 'stock' machine.
    Using this photo...

    Unfortunately- I do not know if he used a metal stencil, or a plastic one. Heck! He might of just freehanded the whole thing! It looked like brush marks on a portion of it...
    I believe Marco Specialties has a set usually for this machine (if you have too much on your plate already. )...
    Show us some pics when you are done!

    yeah that would be sweet to do something like that im not much of an artist. i know sounds funny since i am restoring one but when i get to that part i may try to it. i am almost done with the playfield. i thought i was almost done but i am going back on a few things. i need to take some new pics when i do i will post them.
