Have a customer that wants to mod a Banzai. This is not a yes/no question, so no repsonses needed saying it shouldn't be done.

Most obvious choices to me are Orange, Red or Green as those are the predominate colors on the cabinet or in the game. Any other ideas. Anybody have pictures of theirs?

Thanks
Kris

Can anybody do a black and white checkboard job on it?

Stainless steel or black would look good.

#4 9 years ago

check out prismatic powders 6500 options

I would like to see some pics, if anyone has done some colors. U know I love the bling like Greg but not sure if colors would work on Banzai. Think I would do Chestnut Chrome

I believe Greg did Chrome on his first Banzai (or at least added a little by adding an apron wire and chrome nuts to replace the nylon nuts over the plastics)

keep it original

Buzzzzzz. Not an acceptable answer. Please see the first post.

Chrome...We are talking Motorcycles right...

#10 9 years ago

Chrome would make it pop.... and Greg loves bling!

Do anodized red or gold like the old school handlebars in the 80s.

Some of you guys have to seriously lay off the cotton candy colors. I'm sorry but on MOST of the classic B/W pins they just look hideous! Hard to go wrong with stainless, chrome or glossy black powder coat.

Bump. Chrome is currently in the lead.

#14 9 years ago

Throw some Demo Man gun handles on it

#15 9 years ago

Chrome it is!

No Demo man handles. Makes more sense on shadow then it did on Demo Man, but no extra buttons needed for Banzai. Now maybe some Paperboy Handlebars, that would look great

Post pictures of the final outcome

I would keep it original

fer sure!

So chrome armor, but what about the T-molding. Black Leatherette like the original or Chrome like Stern heads.

Going out to Mike Chestnut!!!

Chrome molding, definitely!
