Used to be a Track & Field a couple of conversions ago, now it’s a Ms Pac based MAME :P
Used Happs vinyl for the sides and it turned out really well. I’ll definitely use it again on future projects.
Still working on the software part of it but I’m going to use an older version of mame since the computer is a former roadside pc with Game Launcher as the FE.

Your cabinet looks great, so you used an adhesive vinyl? Was it easy to apply? Did you trim it flush for the tmolding or does it sit under the tmold as well? I am thinking about doing this for my lowboy project.
Well done,
Simon.

Wasn't the T-molding offset? If so, what did you do about that?

It was easy to apply. You just have to make sure the surface is clean and take your time as you have to clear the air bubbles as you peel the backing off. I still got a few small air bubbles but you can clear those with a pin.
As far as the T-molding, I just cut the vinyl at the T-molding center and tucked it under the T-molding.
Also take out any bolts from the side of the cabinet since you want a smooth even surface.
