Would like to see the pics - thinking about some crystals for mine but hate to send it away while they are applied.

I would love to have my bb modded. I was waiting for a phone call while taking my little sisters to the pool and dropped my bb for the first time. It landed on the pavement and hit exactly where my bestskinever or whatnot was not covering my bb. It has some pretty scratches. I would love to paint it or get crystals on it, but am not sure where to go about finding someone to do it.

I blinged my own. The charges for that are kind of ridiculous!! Let me know if you want a link for some materials. You need glue, a toothpick, and some crystals and you can do it for about $40. Try it out on just the battery door if you aren't sure you can pull it off. You can always replace it.

Woo Hoo! Yes, I would love to get hooked up with some links

Do you have any past pictures of how yours came out?

Thank you Alimah! You rock

I bought everything from jewelrysupply.com. The glue is called "Bond 527 Multipurpose cement" for about $3 and I used Flat Back Swarovski crystals in size SS12 - just the regular ones, not the hotfix. They have such amazing colors now I am tempted to do my 7520. I don't have any pics of the old 7510 and it is R.I.P. now but since I have gone out to that site again and seen all the beautiful new colors, I am tempted.

that would be sick if could get someone to airbrush it nicely

[Heather924]

Very cool, Alimah - thanks for the info! I'm ready to pick out some colors now

[yeaguy]

To get teh custom cases, you would require to need someone in the manufactoring plant.. i've seen pink ones, red , blue cases. around the waterloo region its really common here

I would pay a good chunk of change to somehow acquire a magenta (the same magenta t-mobile uses for their razr's) housing for my 8700c. Ha ha.

Thank you so much for the link Alimah!

Your welcome Hmmmmm.....magenta. I could live with that. I am due to upgrade in February. I just may try this paint job.

There are some skins available at http://www.skinit.com. They have patterns and solid colors. I have never seen one in person, but someone posted a pic a while back somewhere in this forum.

I have reviewed similar ones from a different company for a Spanish BB forum I belong to, they are not worth your money. They do not fit well (specially if you have extended batteries, a concept that they are not used to), the fit around full keyboards is hard to say the least. They do not stick well and will peel off fairly easy. My advice is to stay away unless you do like the idea of changing them often, and the associated expense of doing that.
