I have owned a LOT of phones during my time, and I have never left one stock. Stock is........boring...lol.

I just swapped the back cover to a clear glass one on my 4s and it looks awesome.
The only thing I noticed is that their is a small contact that touches what is either an antenna or EMI shield on the inside of the rear cover (OEM, not the one I put on). You can see the small gold contact just below the "i" in iPhone. It is screwed down to the battery connector.
I will have to do some testing to see what that affects now that it's not doing anything.

This is an awesome mod however it's not something I would ever do. Very cool though

Very cool! Although I never have my phone out of a case (too scared that I'd drop it) so I'd never be able to enjoy how cool that looks! Will have to admire yours from afar! ;)

Yea. It feels thin enough to slip out of my hands with no case on. I had a Case Mate Barely There case on it before and although it was thin, it still added enough to make the phone easier to grip.

If you put an anti-glare screen saver on the back, that'll take care of a lot of the fingerprint problems. I have mine covered both front and back and it always looks clean without any finger prints.

Nice back ! I'm thinking about getting the silver/clear for my white phone.
