Quoted from Martinh:Hi Catch86,
Thanks for that - I'm not in the US, but have found something similar from a local supplier.
I guess that the head of the rivet or screw needs to be flush with target surface to avoid damaging the ball surface?
Cheers,
Martin
If you look at the game now the rivet is not completely flush with the surface of the target. It doesn't stick out like a screw would but it does have some bow in it.
The guy in that thread who is making them looks pretty good. Flippers.com does have them as Lee posted but you get the whole arm, not just the target face. That brings the price up a bunch.
I doubt that PBR ever makes them. I guess you could ask them but that is a hot stamping deal and if he doesn't have the die then the cost probably exceeds the return on investment. Put it this way, if he's not making Gottlieb lockdown bars which have a pretty good demand he's not likely to make these target faces as Gottlieb is still his main business.
