Stripped and repainted the marquee retainers and sanded/repainted the control panel...

JeepMonkey,

Here's a pic of the bezels side-by-side (original on the right, arcadeshop on the left)

Farb:
The right side art has been applied. Man, I remember the stress of putting those little water release decals on plastic models as a kid... the stress of applying a $26 piece of vinyl after spending a week painting is WAY worse!  ::)

Thanks Farb.

I see the colors are a bit different.  Is it that the old bezel is just faded, or are the colors just different in places?

Do the dimensions match exactly?

Just curious, why did you go with arcadeshop?  I know there are other companies that make repro DK bezels.

Wade:
I'm pretty sure that ALL the silkscreened DK repro artwork came from the same place.  So it's mostly a matter of finding the best price between Phoenixarcade, Arcadeshop, and Mike's Arcade.
