- haha very true, although if the battery door is the same, im not sure id like it too much with the colour contrast of white, black and steel.
personally i have quite subtle tastes, but its gotta all `fit`, like for example i coulda gone gold (or even rose gold), but the chrome strip below the camera, the chrome bars in the keyboard and the silver around the trackpad would bug the life outta me for being a diff colour lol.KoreAairlines likes this.09-12-11 03:44 PMLike 1 - hey all, so two weeks ago i sent off my 9900 for some custom work, now first thing i wanna say is what a difference it is to go back to a 9780 for a bit! makes ya notice the difference!
but i digress, i got my Bold 9900 platinum plated, the process was well simple, i send it in, they plate it and send it back
anyways, enough of the talk, heres some pics
the pics dont really do it justice, its kinda hard to get one right because of the light, but basically its a silver/chrome kinda look.Last edited by BBThemes; 09-12-11 at 07:40 PM.
HaTaX and anon(42011) like this.09-12-11 07:20 PMLike 2 - i know its your baby and all so i dont want this sounding too harsh but, i can hardly tell the difference compared to the stock phone?
Im sure it looks better in the flesh but i dunno, doesnt seem worth doing looking at the pics (gotta be honest from the title i was expecting the full phone to be silver, now that i think would look rather tasty - matte silver that is, not glossy)09-12-11 07:26 PMLike 0 - i know its your baby and all so i dont want this sounding too harsh but, i can hardly tell the difference compared to the stock phone?

as for doing all of it, what bit would you mean? theres the keyboard which isnt really doable, the bit below but thats plastic, and the back but thats also plastic lol09-12-11 07:31 PMLike 0 - aye that does look a bit better i was meaning having it in a more brushed aluminium colour, similar colour to that supposed porsche version thats kicking around but with the same layout as the 9930
stripped down and dip coated would work, but the keyboard and the black bezel that forms part of the screen would be the sticking points as said.
Mind you i like the look of it in black with the steel bezel to be honest, they'll probably end up bringing out a white one before long anyway09-12-11 07:40 PMLike 0 -

Looks very nice - and knowing it's Platinum plated has a cool factor.09-13-11 12:14 AMLike 0 - definitely cool ... i like when people customize their devices.I did it with my 9700 but yet im too afraid with the 9900 since its too new... but i like yours09-13-11 01:01 AMLike 0

- yea it was �150 plus postage, to put that into perspective for non uk people, my car costs �90 to fill up from empty.
it was done by Gold iPhone | Gold iPad | Luxury iPhones | Gold Plated iPod | Gold Plating in the UK, but they do have offices elsewhere in the world.
didnt cost me any time lol, well, other than going to the post office to send it away i guess, as for cash, well i know people that modify their cars and spend thousands on that, i know people who have lots and lots of pets and spend lots on that, and i know people who always have to have the latest tech and go out and buy the latest tv/pc/phone, so everyone has their vices i guess. oh and its platinum not chrome09-13-11 09:01 AMLike 0 -
