Hey all,
I figured I'd start this thread to document my progess in deconverting my Mario Bros. widebody from Skins Golf and restoring it back to its rightful Mario Bros. form. This restoration/deconvert is lower on my priority list as I am practicing my restoring elsewhere so when it comes time for the dirty work (sanding, bondo-ing, sanding some more, and painting) on the widebody I'll be ready to do the best job I can.
I didn't want to spoil the surprise but many will be happy to hear I did decide to go the original route and paint it the correct orange. In fact, I'll probably use the translucent veneer kit Phett did if it's still for sale.
Anyway, here's a before pic and some with my new bezel installed (thanks garagearcadecom).
