Arrow Brushed metal iPhone

Looks super cool... if my chrome ever starts getting scratched up I may just try this.

If someone has done that here please post your results.

I'll do it as soon as I see the first few scratches. Can't void warranty right? (God knows I need it...)

That looks awesome but I don't trust myself with a razor blade on my phone!

No need for a razor blade. I taped my phone up today just to test it out and was able to get it perfect without any razor. Just no scotchbrite pad.... but I may just have to pick one up this weekend.

I really like the way that looks.
I think I might pick up a scotchbrite pad this weekend.

I may wait until I get a few scratches on the chrome, if that happens, but if you get it done this weekend post a few pics.

Will do!
I was thinking about doing the volume up/down and ringer switch too since it appears to be the same material.
