Housing Swap to iPhone awesomeness.....

**Sadhunni** · 05-11-2009, 08:08 PM

I want the apple logo to be on it and plus my old black housing have dents on the side. It will look disgusting.

IPHONE 3G INSPIRED (UNLOCKED) RED SPECIAL EDITION - eBay (item 180355148269 end time May-11-09 18:19:01 PDT)

Wow.. THere is a picture of the side of an iphone. The little piece is sticking out. o.O

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA

Those are cheap chinese knockoff's he's selling....not real iphones.

Who says I cant do the Apple logo??

Yes, I airbrushed that.

**Sadhunni** · 05-11-2009, 08:29 PM

well i was trying to order back housing for a friend because she wants her housing changed and that auction pops up and decided to share it. funny right? it looks so real.. o.O

Now I am mad at you. If you can show me one iphone 3g in purple, i sent you mines right away.

**cpjr** · 05-11-2009, 08:40 PM

Well, I can do any color. But Im still trying to work out the "kinks"....or in other words get a good method down pat.

Just ordered another airbrush ($150) and am eager to try it out. Wanna find an easier method to spraying the logo too....right now its a PAIN.

If you can paint the phone purple and leave the logo alone, I will love you to do mines and you never mentioned this the first place before i make my decision. =O

**Sadhunni** · 05-13-2009, 12:58 PM

CPJR, i want to ask you something regarding the housing. Is the regular black housing from apple is skinnier than the red housing you installed for me? The case I bought from more-thing doesnt fit on my red iphone. o.O
I can try to push it in but im afraid it will scratch up my phone T__T

**cpjr** · 05-13-2009, 02:28 PM

^I've noticed the aftermarket housings seem to be a little offset in size compared to the oem. Thats why the oem bezel doesnt fit on them perfectly either. So yeah, a little different. Stuff like cases will fit tighter.

**Sadhunni** · 05-13-2009, 02:59 PM

GAH!! Now i cant use the Noel Pink Case. I have to return it ><
I CANT BELIEVE MY BOYFRIEND GOT FATTER HAHA! He needs a diet. I guess he have to wear the pink silcone case which fits him now.

So I received blkcadi's new iphone for some work. She nabbed it REAL cheap (im not even gonna say how cheap) from a friend, it had a busted glass and was scratched up pretty bad.

She also gave me permission to try out a super secret new method I'd been working on to "restore" the phone when it looks like crap......this is kinda how it went:

All pics taken with my iphone, so not the best of quality.

Before

Prep (I kinda like the matte black

After

What's ya'll think?

**Sadhunni** · 05-19-2009, 09:05 PM

Nice job CPJR! =]

**blkcadi** · 05-19-2009, 09:44 PM

Holy crapola, Are you sure that's my back cover? SO SO awesome.

Thank you so much. Your the bests.

**Broomhead** · 05-19-2009, 10:04 PM

Looks awesome cpjr... better then new i bet
Can't wait to see what you can do with mine.

**cpjr** · 05-19-2009, 10:12 PM

^Thanks. Dunno bout better than new.....but much better than before

Still has tiny "pits" that were too deep to work with....but only noticable up close.

**cpjr** · 05-21-2009, 04:08 PM

Got the new glass/digitizer for blkcadi's phone today.....

**Sadhunni** · 05-21-2009, 04:40 PM

It looks brand new. Way better than mines.

I think if this is your way of making money you need to invest in a way better camera and a tripod. You don't even need to spend that much. A semi decent one from costco will pay itself off in a couple of jobs. You really can't see the finish of the product all that well the way you're doing it now.

I have a $2000 Nikon, tripod, the whole setup.

But not on me right now cause my fiance has it. Not that I care I usually only post these pics to show the members who own the phone that Im getting the job done.

And yeah this isnt any way of making money.....its a hobby and helps people here.

**blkcadi** · 05-21-2009, 05:42 PM

Looks awesome cpjr. Can't thank you enough.

**Zwayne** · 05-21-2009, 05:45 PM
