The other one I was thinking of sticker bombing under a clear faceplate from Focusattack but I'm not entirely sure if I'll end up with too much height from the stickers to get a nice smooth finish at the edges of the faceplace or if it's just going to get raised up too much.
Any ideas? Ideally I'd want a sticker bomb sheet thats been printed that I can just cut as I need it but I've not found one yet with DC game logos on it. Have just resigned myself to buying a load of stickers from Redbubble and diy'ing it.

This is how mine turned it it feels really good with Siemetsu buttons and sanwa stick I did need to dremmel out some parts but it fits really good. the only thing I needed to do was switch two wires from the adapter on focus attack just need to use a small flat head to pull and move. Another cool thing is Focus attack includes adapters for all the buttons etc so you don't need to worry about any soldering. after having a friend over and did some fighting games actually thinking of getting another one and converting. Another thing I own is the blissbox usb adapter which also works with the arcade stick so after making my own dc cable (he was out of stock at the time) It works great on PC as well.
Well I've done both my green and pink sticks in the exact same way as you, only I've went with Sanwa hardware. they look amazing. I found the same thing with the stick harness about switching left and right wires. easily done once you realise you need to do it. Still not sure why FA have persisted in selling ones where they expect the pcb to be upside down.
Have also got around the stickerbomb I was thining about for my 3rd by just using the plexi option from Focus Attack and getting a pre-bombed sheet printed which will save on height and cos of all the stickers.
Here's a mockup of it. Should be with me in about a month or so hopefully.
