Looks great, good choice of colour matches the artwork really well.
That's a nice looking Shadow there

It is that Mark pictures don't do it justice looks more blue than a sparkly blue and purple
It looks good. Not for me though as i love the stainless finish on bally/Williams games. The stainless isn't cheap either, so i find it wrong to cover up some fine parts. DE/Sega/stern would greatly benefit from a bit of colour though. I don't care for the standard rails and lock down bars on them.
Not knocking what you've done though as it looks good.

Nice work. Playfield looks so much brighter than mine. A machine that needs LED's.
I like it, also it's a nice touch just matching the coin door frame.
To me moding pinballs is like moding cars, if you like your car then your going to make it yours by personalising it. Some people are happy with just mats and an aerial topper, while others change and add so much it's hard to find the original car underneath it all.
All I see in this pin is love and attention put out on it, also if this pin was sold as is today then it would be at the top end of the normal asking price due to the colour dmd and full led kit, the metalwork also makes it standout and I don't think it would put anyone off buying it.
Keep up the good work!

Looks good, nice work on the colour match 
Looks great with the colour match and the colour DMD
Out of interest did you keep the old translite. I too have the Aurich translite and speaker panel but not fitted yet. My playfield is in similar mint condition as yours. They wear well..
Hi Kenny
Still got both already had an extra translight which is now framed playfield is mint got a few spare plastics,phurba,ring,decals,bits for battlefield ect so all good was thinking about trading or selling as my wee boy finds it to hard but changed my mind as it really is a cracking game once you get used to it.

Actually at the beginning I found it hard too. But once you get used to it it does have a lot of shots and depth. If you are seeking to change I'd hold on, save cash and add to your collection as you'll probably won't find a better one.

Alternative translite is so much better than the original. The colour dmd really makes a difference too. Really need to invest and get one. Just trying to justify the cash for one. 
You're right Kenny probably won't find another one as good if I was going to nit pick the backbox could do with new decals as there is a couple of scratches on them got new ones to replace them but haven't got the courage to start them as I think I would be well out of my comfort zone.Was hoping to get a new pinball in the next couple of weeks but need to buy a new van going today to see about one so here's hoping I get a good deal and there is some cash left over
