I installed the BSE on the wife's phone last night. They even had skin for the skinny little silver edges on the flip part of the phone. Anyways, before putting the skins on, I cleaned it off and looked at it. Holy crap!!! there was a bunch of scratches on the phone. I sarcastically asked my wife how many times she dropped it on concrete and her immediately replied "2". :P So, I applied the skins and it looked better already. It will take a couple of days for the air bubbles to work their way out, but she likes the "grippie-ness" of the skin and the shiny look with the skin on it.
