Title: WTB Cap replacement service
Post by: CDiablo on May 20, 2015, 04:23:35 AM: Hi, I am looking to have up to 3 Turbo Duos get recapped. The only people I see on here doing them are backlogged or busy or quit. If anyone knows a reliable person/place to get this done please let me know. I would love to try this operation myself but dont want to ruin a DUO.

edit: I have found several people that offer to do the replacement for me. For future reference(there should be a sticky for this) as I could not find any recent posts here is a list of people offering capping and modding service as of May 2015. I do not have experience with any of these users but many have a long list of references as well as plenty of cool work on the modding forums/youtube:

Keith Courage (website)
Chop5
thesteve
turbokon(website (http://www.tg16pcemods.com/) taking a modding break as of this edit to likely work on a cool project)
blueraven
BlueBMW
cjameslv(website) (http://www.order3dparts.com/)
gametechus(website) (http://game-tech.us/)(Not taking work as of this post to work on the Hi-Def NES project but likely will in the future)
