For mine:

Frosted cool white behind backglass. Not bright enough, but no spots, so I am happy.

Color matched the inserts

Used cool white under any plastics w/ blue or white. The rest are warm white retro LEDs.

Behind the R-I-V-E-R targets, I used flex head blue leds to highlight the targets, and added in 3 spots to the GI with warm white to light up the mountains

Whirlpool is lined w/ frosted blue leds.

Upper PF behind the rubber I left incandescent. I found the leds for me there were too bright and bothered my eyes.

Quoted from Mamushka:

Thanks, I appreciate the compliment Lots of trial and error making this mod. For the cutout on the spotlight I use a bench mounted disk sander (one of those combination belt/disk sanders), easily went through a dozen methods before I got it figured out (getting the circuit right was the real nightmare). I made a jig to mark the cutouts for repeatability but you should be able to eyeball it for making one. BTW, saws and spotlights don't play well together, I'm lucky I still have 10 fingers

Keeping an eye on pinballlife, since I would like one before they are all gone!

Quoted from FalconDriver:

I just recently set my game back up and purchased
the Bigfoot kit last week from Terry. All in on the incandescent look
as I have in my game with few blue led additions.
I'm was actually wondering what to do maybe for the mountains
for more pop but not too much. Will have to play around now
that I been playing more.PBLBIGFOOTMOD.JPG
The kit just arrived today but haven't put in yet.

Finally had time to install mine last night, took about 20 mins. It is pretty sweet! I may remove the reflector completely and use some sort of ultra-bright LED to give it a cleaner look (similar to what Tracelifter did for his spots.)
