Arcade Shop offers Millipede control panel overlays and
marquees. They also offer speaker grill covers, but
mine is fine.
I removed the Control Panel Overlay in anticipation of my Arcade Shop order.
The trouble is the side and Front art are not available. I am trying to convince Phoenix Arcade to reproduce the art, but I am only one buyer. I need several more to make a run worth while.

Prepare the Cabinet

There is a hole in the front of the cabinet. Looks like
it had a bar across the coin vault and someone removed
it with a crowbar. Someone else attempted a repair by
slapping and entire can of wood putty over the hole.
The putty is over applied. They applied it over the
exit wound, over the surrounding artwork, over the coin
door, it is all over everything. They did it too fast,
too. There are huge fault lines in the putty. This will
have to come off.
I carefully remove the excess putty from the surrounding art work using a putty knife and a wet rag. It looks better already.
I am trying to gouge out the remaining putty. I can best describe the hole as an exit wound. The front is still intact from the inside except the small bolt hole. Outside it is a crater about half the depth of the particle board. If I can remove the putty and start over with a proper job this will greatly improve the cabinet front.
