[msuperbauer]

I love the front, it reminds me a lot of my Dare (Which I'm done with in a day or 2 when my Droid gets here, I wish Fed Ex would hurry up)

It looks very clean, well done.

Got any more close-up shots?

It had a nice brushed finish before I polished it with mothers polish. It does scratch easily and since its a high polish it looks like cheap plastic chrome now that I've had it done a few days... I might go back to a brushed look.

Ill try to take some better pics, it just sucks I can't use the droids awesome camera to take the pics lol

nice, get more pics!

 

[rosekitty]

looks cool.
thx for sharing,

 

[xliderider]

nice, get more pics!

But might I suggest to the OP not to use flash to take the pics. Just light it well, but avoid catching glare from the lighting in the shot.

I have found a way to change my phones without voiding the warranty and it helps on chipping if you drop it, but it does take patience and some acrylic nail polishView attachment 7245 this is my old voyager and my laptop with some of my idea View attachment 7246View attachment 7247 ill upload some pics of the two droids i have done as well

[SC300Drifter]

Added more pix to the first post, I used my girlfriends Eris to take the pics so there is no flash. I lost some quality when I sent the pix to my phone but u can see the shine. Id like go polish more...need to find more metal on this phone...

 

[idulfingz]

about to try out your technique , hopefully i can get mine looking as well as yours does

 

[SC300Drifter]

Make sure that you mask everything off including the screen. I used a single layer of regular white masking tape. A dremel would be perfect for doing this. I used a 3" scotch brite disc to strip the black coating then sand paper to get the hard to reach spots, the mask tape did its job perfectly and I didn't even wear through it. Good luck and post up pics when your done idulfingz
