Default ALL black 8900??

Please Login to Remove!

I know many of you have switched the Chrome bezel to black on your 8900 I have too but now I want to know if anyone has painted or find online a place to get the side buttons black I'm going for the all black look I would like to know if anyone has a suggestion.

I switched my bezel and battery door, it's pretty sweet. I love that my Blackberry is actually black. I lost the use of my keyboard lock and mute buttons during the installation of the black bezel. I acidently sliced both contact stickers in half lol, does anyone know how i can replace them?

Try the industrial sharpie and use some type of clear coat over it. Let it dry for a while before handling it though.

I saw some of the other colors on ebay and they look tempting. I had a Sunset 8320 and loved it.

I just keep mine in a slim black rubber skin. It is really nice, made by RIM so BLACKBERRY is embossed on the back.
