I know the original T-molding on Tron is black leather texture. I have seen Tron’s with purple T-molding on the internet. Long story short I am thinking about putting blue, light blue, or purple t-molding on my Tron cabinet. I would like to make it somewhat unique and give it a slightly different look that someone who is not well versed in arcade games would not notice.
What do you think? I am going to run this poll 7 days and see what you all think.
See link below.

My vote is for black. I don't think you want the T-molding drawing any attention from the eye - the attention should be where it belongs - on the beautiful artwork. Why do you want to make it somewhat unique? Do all your friends have a Tron or something? ;)

No none of my friends have Tron cabinets. I want to do something that will set off the artwork. I think that a different color t-molding would do just that. I thought about red or bright red but that would not go with the joystick handle. Blue I think would go great with the joystick handle. I am also trying to think of a way to light the spinner blue maybe from underneath like ground effects for a car.

I think you're going to find many more purists than renegades. I personally agree with TheShanMan :dunno

That is what I expected but I am beginning to think there are many more that do not care. LOL. This thread has been viewed 167 times. Even if each person viewed it 4 times, when a new post was made, that would mean there has been about 40 people view this thread, I think I am under guessing a bit, and only 15 have voted so far.
I ordered samples from T-molding.com and when they get here I will place them on the cabinet and turn on the lights. To see what they look like. Then I can get a better idea of what it will look like.

i'm one that doesn't care...it's your cab...& something like t-molding can _easily_ be modified...

I agree with fixedpigs, T-Molding is probably one of the most easily changeable decisions that you can make on your cabinet. It is also not a very inexpensive one. I ordered 6 or 7 samples when I was deciding on a color. Put them on the cab and then made a choice. If I woke up tomorrow and decided I hated it, I could order up a new color and have it changed out in a few short days at minimal cost. No tearing down the cabinet, rewiring, or anything major. Pull off the old, put on the new, a few minutes work and its done. Save the old T-Molding and change it back if I want at a later date.
