Very dark by thing and backboard.
Thanks Jeff

I used some bright blue LEDs under the blue plastics back there. Made it look better.

Double-Bright Blue & White frosted Retro GI

I always thought adding an extra spot pointed to the back would be a good idea. Seemed like it belonged there.

A couple of (very bright) GI bulbs really do the trick. I used some purple, which IMO really looked great - but you have to take it easy; there is such a thing as "too "much. A spotlight didn't really work because for me it was too focused - TAF needs more ambient light

Adding some ambient neons worked well too. (:

You can get a 10" led strip on our site for $20 shipped. Purple works best on taf.

Lermods.com.

A piece of reflective vinyl with grey brick wall graphic for the backboard.
Mirror blades for the inner cab sides.
Toss out the smoky ramp and replace it with a clear one.

Pinstadium is an option too.

I installed a spot light near the upper right flipper, pointed toward the bookcase. The above suggestion of brighter GI bulbs is probably better.

The clear ramp helped a lot to be honest.
