Hi everyone!

I have tired with the mate black color of this case, so i decided to do some modding to my case.

Previously i have write a review here.


This is what i plan to do for my case
Attached Image

Metallic Pearl White Base; Silver / Metallic Black Apple logo; Black "incase" logo; Black "16G"; Mirror effect finish.


First thing first, sand down the rubber type surface with 1000 grid wet sand paper.

Damn, the top of the case rubber is a bit thick. take me double the time compare with bottom parts.

em bro i beg to differ i dun think thats a good idea,
if u've already put on invisible shield, u can't even slide your phone into the incase as the gap between the case and the phone is just too tight.

it might scratch the modded incase too, so no point wearing double layers of protection.

it is like wearing double layers of condom, no point right? summore might even break it due to friction biggrin.gif

ya like hanxz said, the case cant fit with invisible shield with it. personally, i tried that before. it was damn tight, i only manage to slide 1/2 in n end up cant take it off also...

today progress:

all back and button area were finish, only left the top part. cant say 98% sanding finish.

the led is using the screen backlight power source.
