Invisible Shield + Barely There Case, or any case for that matter!?

Has anyone tried using an invisible shield or any type of body skin on their iPhone 3G with a Case Mate Barely There case, Incipio Feather case, Seidio Innocase II? I'm extremely paranoid about damaging my iPhone in any way. I see a note by Case Mate not to use a body skin with a Barely There case, but not that it can't be done. Obviously I'm worried it won't look quite right.....

Anyone have any ideas, or tried this at home?

Thanks.

Shelly


P.S. I don't want to get an otterbox. :-P

Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to use a body skin with an ultra slim case. This is one instance where size does matter.

I'm using an invisible shield with my Switcheasy Capsule Neo, and if anything it makes it fit better as well as protect the phone from scratches from the case. It's nice.

I have a white featherlite case on my new iPhone and I think its really awesome. Its just looks like the back of the phone and it protects it pretty well.

I know from experience that the Incase Slider and Seidio Innocase II are not going to work with a shield of any sort.

I have the invisible shield and the Seidio Innocase II and they work great together. What I did was put on the case for about a week to kind of loosen it up then when I put my phone in there I lifted the sides while sliding it in and it didn't lift up the shield. I am also able to take out and put it back in. I like that combo!

I use Bodyguardz... but am having problems with the edges peeling off.

Sad, I have invested in three boxes (each has two full sets). The first two boxes, I screwed up the application but on the third box, I got it right... but it just started to peel after 2 months.

i got invisible shield yesterday, jesus christ is it hard to put on.
I was almost out of that spray solution by the time i finished the back, and then i had to shave off some of the edges near the bezzle to make it flat. but in the end i'm pretty happy with it. nice feel, you can't really see it.

I'm not really a fan of the screen protector for it.. around the Home button it gets really dirty, and it's hard to clean, unlike the ones they sell at apple.
but its a great product..

if i have to get my 3gs replaced.. and do this all over again.. i'm going to kill myself

I've picked up a Speck Candyshell and an Incipio Feather. BSE's are on the way. I'll let you know how it goes.

Here are some photos for comparison.
