I'm going to be ordering a repo SFII Bezel, Marquee, and CPO. I'm looking at mamemarquees which has all three in the style I want but I was wondering if anyone has any opinions or suggestions on the below. If you have another site that you think does a better job than please let me know.

Marquee, is the premium or ultimate material the way to go? Is ultimate worth the extra $10?

Bezel, the only question here is if you know of another site that is better? I don't want the adhere it to the glass but stick it behind it.

CPO, I'm planning on putting it behind plexiglas but probably still want it to be adhesive backed, should I go polycarbinate laminate (does that flex for bends?) or go with the polybanner material they recommend for behind plexi. Is there a quality difference? Am I paying for less with the polybanner even though I pay the same price?

I have been using arcadeoverlays.com because the material and the screen-printing is good quality. My only beef with them is sometimes the colors are slightly off. I will confess that I am particular about color though since I work in art and publishing.
 
Yes the ultimate material is worth it. I've been happiest with mamemarquees.com thus far. One thing for sure...avoid artworkdoctor.com.

Here's my latest custom bezel/marquee. The CPO isn't installed yet...

where did you get that CPO w/the logo and the directions/buttons from?

So I know about the marquee, question #1 done there.

Concerning question two, how hard/structurally sound are the bezels? Mine will fit fairly snug but will the corners or anything bend in over time?

Any thoughts on question three with the CPO?
 
yes avoid artworkdoctor.com because thats the a#$hole sheister that i paid for 2 complete cabinet kits from and he ripped me off and never sent them! so remember folks ask a fellow klov'r first! arcadekit2go.com is his other site!

I disputed his charges with my CC company and got them all back. Did you pay cash?

Is that address correct Natey?

Is it arcadekit2go.com OR arcadekits2go.com?

My browser adds the s (stupid browser)

Neither come up online anyway?

Arcadeoverlays doesn't do screenprinting. You probably meant their inkjet printing is good quality (for inkjet).
