My original TRON marquee was flaking bad!

Even put some electrical tape on the bottom, To stop the light.

So i broke down and purchased a new plexi one, From www.phoenixarcade.com

Their work is outstanding! But with that being said, Still not the same as the original.

The colors are not as bright and vivid as the original  :'(

Long story short. Take care of your original! Keep it as long as you can!

They didn't even get the colors right.

Well, the second picture with me holding it.

Still had the blue protective film over it.

It does look good, And they did a good quality job!

But it's not as good as the original.

I know the plastic was on it. I meant in the third pic.

Yeah, I wish my original hadn't went flaky!
