It looks like pinballsidemirrors.com is having a sale on a brand new product. They are Williams Side rails that are similar to the Stern lollipop style side rails that protect or cover up existing flipper button wear.

I'm not sure I like these... maybe if they were powdercoated I might.

If you only have a flipper button wear as shown below that is not easy to touch up but rest of the cab is great then another good option. I know lollipop rails wouldn't cover all the wear on this MM pictured here but just used as an example.

It certainly looks better then something like this.

Seems to do a decent job of hiding wear

I think if I had a choice of having or not having lollipop side rails on a game would be purely just to hide wear. Otherwise if there is no cab flipper wear I would prefer a small piece of clear mylar just to protect and prevent wear from starting.

I wouldn't be able to afford these. Not with all the stainless steel spray polish I would need to buy to keep my oily fingerprints off them.
