Anyone know where to get PINK translucent buttons and PINK LEDs?

MYX:

I was originally going to use all translucent buttons (reds and blues). When the LEDWiz and ice came out I was torn for a long time. Finally I decided on the ice. When I first put them in I was actually happy with how the white looked. I was worried because the whole cp is deep blues, reds, and oranges. Now that was just unlit. Once lit man the thing just is beautiful. You can easily make pink with the LEDWiz and RGB lighting. I have made just about any color I could think of (even black when I turn off the machine and turn off the lights  ;). For you, pink is not a far cry from pink so I can not imagine that it would look too bad. Plus when you figure that most arcades had white buttons, no one would think twice until you turned on. I did use translucent buttons for the utility row BTW. Jus my $.02

As stated previously by Fozzy, you don't have to get white or clear.  Japanese buttons can be had in trans pink.  Might take some hunting to find 'em, but I'm pretty sure they exist.

Scroll down and click on the "skeleton" transparent/translucent  Seimitsu buttons. They come in pink.

Cool.  Thanks for the link.  I have a lot to think about.  Does anyone know where I can get some PINK automotive dye for plastic or vinyl?  Something like THIS but in PINK.

I know this is completely not what you asked for, but on the off chance it would work anyway, check out this thread where Luckydevil used plain old Rit dye to dye his joystick balltops.
