We've covered Lucky Labs before with their MacBook and iPad decals. Recently Steve from Lucky sent me out one of their new products to test - real carbon fiber skins for the iPhone 4.
Lucky Labs have been doing decals for a while now on iDevices, and the cuts are precise. These iPhone 4 Tru Skins are not carbon fiber finishes or designs - they're actual carbon fiber, with a clear epoxy resin over them for a deeper shine.
Application is easy, remove the backing and apply the skin. The adhesive used comes off with a little effort and leaves a clean iPhone back. The strong material also fully protects the back of your iPhone (there is not a front skin in this style - for the same reason they don't cut out the logo, material constraints) from scratching and dirt. It's a relatively thick skin, although I was able to still fit any cases over the iPhone easily. Not that you'd want to cover that shine up.
The Tru Skin comes in 2 colors: traditional black carbon fiber, and a silver fiberglass color. My photo here shows the silver a little white - it does look much more silver in real life (see their photos on the Lucky Labs page).
The skins retail for $24.99 (although they're currently on sale for $19.99 at Lucky Labs). Of course, if you don't want to pick one up, Lucky Labs is giving away a couple to two lucky ModMyi members - one black and one silver. Simply leave a comment of why you should have one more than the next guy, and we'll ship a couple out this weekend!
