Joined the privileged SK crew today. Been on the hunt for a while, she’s far from perfect, but she plays... happy days!.

Quoted from ita47:

The playfields and backglass came today. I they all look great. The colors are better in person than on the CPR website.

Thanks for posting. Good to hear you're happy, I've got a playfield, backglass and plastics on order. Very much looking forward to restoring my Stars.

Hey all, I’m getting together parts to restore my Stars and wondering what you guys are doing on the drops. If using decals, where are you getting them? Pinball Rescue offer a bunch of stuff (including Quicksilver drops decals which I’ve used) but don’t have the Stars.

Quoted from frunch:

Has anyone here installed a CPR repro playfield for their Stars? I'm about ready to pull the trigger on one, just thought I'd get a little feedback if I could first.
Thanks!

Haven't installed mine yet, but it looks great!!

rotordave Stars will be my next resto, just need to finish off the current resto. Yours has come up great, congrats!! Did you add further clear to the CPR repro or is that factory? Looks nice and shiny.

Most importantly... how does she play?

Quoted from gliebig:

Got the bounce dialed in.

Is that the only way dial in the bounce, pitch/side to side?? Maybe I need a bouncier rubber, but my Stars looks to have no chance of bouncing flipper to flipper.

Quoted from koji:

I had trouble with mine. What helped for me was making sure there is no slop in the flippers, so they should spring down all the way to the alignment pins and rest firmly on those.
I used the smallest size rubber (small mini post) type

Appreciate the tips
