Replaced the black star posts at the slings with clear ones and lit two on each side with comet star post lights. I installes a trough light and also a red light strip above the volcano. Finally I installed a green light strip behind the backbox to give the game a green glow. Really happy with how it all turned out. The game is a lot brighter now.

I also see you have Brock’s 3d lane guides! I do as well and not many at all are out there! I’ve been tempted to remove the skull and bones but I’m afraid I’ll ruin them. There was an option not to have these on at the time of production. I got mine second hand though.

Yep! I didn't know they came in different versions. I think it's a really nice mode and way better than simply having the metal guides!
Quoted from ripit:I wish someone would remake them as they look fantastic.
I reached out to Brock years ago but unfortunately he stated the molds were accidentally destroyed and had no future plans to recreate them.Also there was barely any interest at the time when the were being produced.
Just saw a post where someone made something like these for Metallica, but to replace the sling plastics. 3D printed in Resin and hand painted. Price tag was like $150 though….
