before you buy, make sure it will fit your control panel layout. I think nba jam panel is different than blitz, wwf, ect. I think its about 2" smaller.
 
I can confirm that Jam, Blitz, Open Ice and Hangtime all have the same layout from the factory.
 
I actually went to a plexi glass dealer in my area that made one for me.
I had the original and he simply used that as a template.
The other suggestion if you don't have the original plexi is to bring the entire CP in and have them measure it out.
 
I bought the NBA Jam overlay from mamemarquee/gameongrafix and it didn't quite fit my NFL Blitz metal control panel overlay. I just ended up using the NFL Blitz panel as a template and cut a new panel to match the graphic. Not too bad and now I have an extra control panel if I ever need one. Or if someone here does....

On the plexi, just use your CP as a template and do it yourself with a drill (to pilot the holes) and use the router with a flush trim bit. Super easy. estreetplastics.com is good but they may be pricey I haven't checked them against anyone else.
 
Just a quick FYI in case some don't know. Mamemarquees' Jam CPO is off a little on alignment from the original. The button holes placement isn't quite right. Jow can chime in as he is the first person I remember alerting us to that.
 

Be glad you did not win this item.

When I received this item, it had significant water damage. It was also quite dirty. THe water damage so affected the sticker as to make application very difficult and needlessly time consuming. I had to repair some of the backing to get it to adhere properly as I went.

I left negative feedback on ebay, and the seller sent me this blurb:

When i found that overlay I was very excited about it`s condition.I would been more than happy to tefund your money .I could have sold that item to any number of people.You stated item was dirty. Its mylar and meant for abuse.There was nothing on it that could not have come off with windex. As far as installation I can`t be held responsible for what you do.Their are people that have been installing overlays for years that still make mistakes. chuck

This was for an item that was listed as New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item (including handmade items). See the seller's listing .

My reply was as follows:

Chuck,

The simple fact is the item was not in the condition you stated it was.

There was significant water damage, which made application difficult. Parts of the sticker were so damaged as to not be able to be applied to the control panel. There was dirt covering sections of the front of the sticker. That you could have sold it to others is really not the issue. That you were not honest about the condition is, and I doubt seriously that had you been more up front regarding the condition that you would have garnered any interest. That you are now not contrite given these factors leads me to think this was an intentional deception.

Either way fair warning, if you buy from this seller you may want to take a closer look. His pictures for this item made it hard to gauge condition, but it clearly was not in the condition he had stated.

I was eyeing that, and was rather ticked when i missed the end of the auction, i'm a lil less ticked now.

I do feel for you tho, and that sucks that the item was nothing like what was pictured. i was looking at a few of the sellers other items, guess i'll steer away from that now.
 
I'm sorry that put a bid on that too.

NBA jam Overlays are hard to come by.

I almost tempted to buy another NBA Jam game just to get a better CPO. Laughs.
I really getting tired and looking at the gang banger scribbles.
 
No doubt. I took a chance because the only one I could find was 150.00 and it was out of stock.

It happens. Its not my first ebay let down (i generally hate buying from someone I don't know or who isn't established. Why can't everyone be like Steve Young...) but I did feel the guy wasn't honest about what he sold and I wanted to give folks here a heads up.
