www.mameroom.com has the panels, and mamemarquees.com does the graphics. You may also want to check out www.arcadesrfun.com for some prebuilt panels. There are also a couple guys on this board that you could hire, but it wouldn't be cheap. It just all depends on how lazy, and how much money you are willing to spend to pay others to do your work for you :dunno

Kaytrim is an amazing guy to work with. I can't recommend him or his work highly enough. I've also worked with knievel (don't know if he's still doing custom work), and timoe (mini sticks take most of his time these days), and both are top-notch builders as well.

The forum is actually full of people willing to sell their services, but I'm only familiar first-hand with these three.

www.arcadesrfun.com is the way to go for a plug and play panel.  Period.  Jack is a great guy who knows his stuff and provides outstanding quality, craftsmanship and most importantly customer service.

Highly recommended.
