lol yeah the original housing was pretty beat up. even the original trackball looks black from the pictures. ahahaha. but it feels good to rock the clean black'd out berry.
i bought a new housing. LOL yes.. i hope this one doesn't share the same fate as the original either. Time to look for a silicone case. Can anyone recommend a case made for the 8330, w/o the cutout for the signal led like the 8310/8320 etc. The oem blackberry skin looks like it has the cutout which might look wierd on my phone.

Invisible Shield looks like a possible solution. Though a black silicone skin would be nice to. I got the case off ebay from... eBay Store - Tech-zone4world: BlackBerry, Apple IPod Parts, PDA Parts. It came will tools and took about a week to come in from Hong Kong. Install took.. less than 5 minutes.
And about the black trackball ring... I really think the chrome sets it off the black nicely.
Body Glove makes great heavy-duty rubber case with screen shield like OtterBox but not as bulky or pricy...It only comes in BLACK and $15 bucks on ebay...and I have a red 8330 (ps...the cut-out for the LED does't look bad either)
Where did you buy the housing and the black home keys from
i bought the housing from ebay off of Techzonefourworld ebay store. It came with all the tools required for installation and received everything in about a week. The black home keys came stock since its a 8330 for verizon, but Im sure you can search around ebay for it as well. goodluck!
haha so i was under the impression that i ordered a green trackball on ebay, turns out i bought a blue one. those drinks must've crept up on me. guess mine is going to look like yours until i order a green ball.
