Hi All,
I would be grateful for advice on the following. I've had my White water for 3 years ago and it is without a doubt my favourite pin, it is just so addictive!
As a noob I bought it in pretty tatty shape and I would love to get it up to what can be considered a nice standard.
I paid £2,000 for it and my dilemma is whether it is worth putting the money in to get it up to a respectable standard or would it be better to sell this one off and pay more for a good condition unit? All I know is that I always want to have a White water in my collection so want to figure the best step going forward
As much as I absolutely love pins, I can barely change a lightbulb so refurbing it myself is out the question! If it is judged to still be economical to refurb my one, I would be grateful for recommendations on forum members that could do a high standard refurb on it
The main areas of to look at:
Cab has been chipped on some of the corners.
Cab Decals
Coin box, respray
Damage to the long ramp
LED replacement
DMD is missing some lines so replace with a colour LCD DMD
Any other general maintenance to get it up to a good standard
The machine plays well with no known faults, however some of the wiring looks to have had some patch jobs on it so not sure if that would need looking at as well.
Appreciate your advice!.

Not every game has to be a minter , but appreciate if its a lifetime keeper then worth exploring options.
