Speculative question, but is there any way to restore a playfield completely if there isn't a hardtop/replacement manufactured for that pin? I'm thinking about 90s-eta pins, not EMs, etc.
 
Get a spare playfield or strip yours, loads of reference pictures, clean, degrease, paint and get someone to lacquer it for you. Simple in theory just very time consuming.
Don't expect it to be flawless as you can only do what you can do (gradient fades and half-tones) but hopefully it will turn out OK. If you've no artist abilities though get someone else to do it.

Some of the time lapse pics in this video will give you an idea what's involved. His Funhouse turned quite well too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1M3vx9z-go
