I wish someone could make a Famous Stars and Straps casing. That'd be awesome! I'd send mine over to get that done!

For all you people that are scared to do this mod...
DealExtreme: $3.19 Protective Backside Case for iPhone 3G/2G (Red) free shipping...
They crack easy, so once you put it on leave it.. (Or you can buy 10 for the same price as one of the replacement backs.
Some pics of my dealextreme case... $3.19 and it snaps on in about .5 seconds !!

(actually the pics dont do it justice.. Its a deep candy apple metallic red.

Question: does the bezel snap into the back cover or does it need to be glued?

Glued.

Michelebabe1234 · #**399** 10-23-2009, 11:52 PM

Very nice, what glue do you recommend to use?

**cpjr** · #**400** 10-23-2009, 11:54 PM

Just a good epoxy. You can use something like crazy glue but it may haze the housing/bezel - which can be cleaned off, but may take a few cleanings.

i purchased one off ebay and it wasnt a good fit at all. does anyone know of a reputable site to purchase a housing, i do remember seeing a link on this thread when it first started but cant find it anymore

**cpjr** · #**402** 10-31-2009, 12:16 AM

^None of them fit well, you have to struggle with them to make them fit. Aftermarket is never like OEM.

how to do it for the 2g

denimdragon · #**404** 11-10-2009, 09:34 PM

Well i have started my custom backs project. I will post pics later tonight. Planning on doing so exstensive measuring to get everything to line up. cpjr, which epoxy do you recommend?

**cpjr** · #**405** 11-10-2009, 09:38 PM

Anything that works well for both plastic and metal. Allow it to dry completely before assembling.
