It seems like you could make some money doing that work on ebay. Just post an ad saying that you can custom paint a whole bunch of different kinds of backs and as people order just order the backs off ebay and then paint them then send. Make sure to set the right expectation with the customer and say that it can take 2-3 weeks for delivery as each order is custom designed.
When you get rich send me a pm, I'll give you my paypal address for my slice of the pie.
i tried this with rubber coating for trucks, and paints...nothing would completely stick... it all rubs off slowly on your hands if you use rattle cans.. good luck..
You would definitely need to sand it first if it rubs off.

Lol if your printing plastic man at least take steel wool or scotch pad to it. It turned out great. Only one coat of clear. But it did take about an how to dry fully on top the red but I was at work so its cool x)

Why haven't we seen any of these on Ebay or for sale on any phone website? I would like to pick up a few extras just to mess with and make custom back covers but it seems as if we only have the one extra our phone came with. Due to the fact the entire back is the battery cover it lets us change the whole phone without a case.
I highly highly doubt that there will be additional battery covers in the future.
When was the last time a phone came out with extra battery covers a LONG time ago.
I know a lot of people would like them but it's probably not going to happen. Everything now is based around cases.
The fact that tmobile included an extra cover with the phone is great but rare. I don't even know why they did it.
I think he means more like replacements or extras, to mod or paint.

Yes or different colored batteries covers , im really looking for a stock white colored one i am looking into painting my own but would rather have one factory made.
I was hoping they would have this as well. I mean, they can probably fabricate it pretty easily. I would buy a rubberized back for 10 bucks and forget the case.
These are not battery covers, but silicone that goes over the battery cover. I have one, and they are nice. Not too much thicker and with a better "grip."

I like the glossy slip. With the white Korean phone maybe well get some.

Looks like they have a pink battery back cover from Anycall......... could this be the begining?
Overall. Quality of this product is superb and installation was so easy.
Did it all in about 15 mins + finishing it off with a hair dryer on low heat and 6" away from phone while off to cure the phantom skinz.

They are kinda small. Gotta stretch it a bit when you put it on, and then use hair dryer to make it even better. There is a video instruction on the website. Just followed every step and turned out great.
This is pure sex in my eyes!!!!

The camera I took the pic with is kind of crappy as it isn't as detailed. Pictures don't do the justice. Looks way better in person.
It is also texturized. Not just an image print.
That looks very sweet! May have to look into getting something like this for my cappy! Nice work on the install
if you are in the carbon fiber mood, there is a site that specializes in the 3M film (now in 7 colors!)
http://www.carbonfiberfilm.com/blog/3m-carbon-fiber-di-noc-now-available-in-7-different-colors/
I had this same skin for a while.
It actually adds some grip to the otherwise slippery Captivate.
Also gives a small amount of protection.
Initially it is a lint magnet until the adhesive at the edges wears out. But then it looks really good.
For me it only had two downsides:
1. Eventually, it started to lift at a couple of spots.
2. Can't be transferred to another device (like a case can) if you need to replace your phone for some reason.
I picked up this Nex brand Fishbone style case for the Epic Touch.

Like my lock screen? Lol...I have had it four days, and it feels great in hand and slides easily in my pocket (from Jeans to Gym shorts)!
I haven't dropped it yet but all four corners are completely double covered and I expect there would be ZERO damage if I do drop it...
They come in Black, White, Green, Pink, Purple or Red...
I think it is WELL worth the $20-$25 for it, and it looks BAD ASS!
Wow that does look pretty nice. Thanks for sharing, think I might order me one. Does that spine looking accessory snap on and off?

Any thoughts on the raised/textured back? I'm looking at this compared to the flat one such as: http://www.amazon.com/Titanium-Black-Fishbone-Protector-SAMSUNG/dp/B006IZBKCS/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_img_c
Wondering if the textured back would feel good in my hand...

For me, the back isn't really textured or rough, just raised above the rubber inlet. It feels really good in hand, but I think the pricing on the smooth backed one is alot nicer!
Let me know if you have anymore questions...

Can I still have the Nexus word/logo cut out like it looks on the phone? Meaning in landscape mode.
Please refer to their website and see the options in all drop down menus.

Makes it pretty expensive, but it is possible.
I love the look of these skins, but I'm wary of putting one on in the long run, because I like certain cases and the look of the "naked" phone, not to mention the faceplate won't work with a screen protector. I was, however, interested about getting just the piece to go over the camera lens, because I figured an ebony camera bit on a red nexus would be a nice accent piece,
I contacted Toast through Facebook, completely sure I'd get a "Sorry, but we can't do individual camera pieces because.." They responded within a day, telling me they'd work it out. After ONE e-mail to them, they assured me they would sell me a single lens cover for $5(shipping included). I'll be getting that ebony piece, for sure.
I have to say, they're making a fantastic impression on me already.
Hey guys check this bulk crap out. I got my girl the blue nexus 5x and after using it less then 2 weeks all of the edges and around the camera are pink from the inside of her red purse.... See the pics. Going to probably grab a replacement from google... Should not be doing that.

Wouldn't that just be the purse bleeding it's color onto the phone? Did the purse ever get moisture on/in it? I would expect any kind of plastic light in color and matte finished like the 5X back would do the same thing? Idk just an educated guess

Won't that ruin the plastic and its color?
Use it softly with very light pressure. Take it slow. Sure I guess it could, along with anything you rub on it
I would RMA the purse instead
Just put it in a different color purse?
Its matte plastic, its going to hold on to somethings. I had a flake of something red get in between the case and the phone and it left a stain on the phone. But then I just rocked the phone out of the case for a day or two and it wore off.
Hey thanks for the replies... I know that these things can happen over time but this is under 2 weeks of use!
This is on my girls phone. No moisture inside the bag at all...just spent a few day in there.
I'm going to try the magic eraser out and see how that works. I have used them in the past and they d work well for this type of thing.
