Need pair of overlays, 26.5" wide
« on: May 04, 2005, 09:17:20 pm »
I need a pair of matching control panel overlays, at least 26.5" wide. I want REAL overlays, not printed out ones (I am not using plexi, and this is a curved metal panel, thus I need real overlays).

Generic or game specific is fine. Game specific overlays can't tell you where to put the buttons/controls though. Looking for something OTHER than Golden Tee grass overlays, I already know where to get those.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Well you likely know, so I don't now why I even bother mentioning it, but Happs carries patterned generic overlay matrial by the roll. I've never personally used it, but they swear it's tough.

We have some very high quality control panel overlays in Blue, Red and Black for $16.99. Unfortunately, they are only 25 inches wide (by 15.5 inches tall).
Here's the link anyway:

I remember a post a while back for Some Capcom ones.  Apparently the guy had tons!  He may still have some.  Here's the thread:

I bought a couple of those Capcom overlays. They're thick and quite nice. Haven't actually installed them yet, but I suspect good things.

I tried your Capcom overlay link up there, but it didn't work. Give this one a shot...

These are what I bought from him. They appear to be large enough for your needs, though I don't know if "Capcom" is gonna be a problem. They have a diamond-plate pattern on them. Quite nice, actually...

I have used the Capcom overlays before.

Anyway, Monkeybomb had a spare Happs generic overlay, that will be suitable once chopped in half. It will cover the TOP of the panels but not the underside, which is fine, I will just carefully cut it to make it look good that way (like on Pac-Man).
