    Default Cheapest place for chrome backing..?

    Does anybody know where i can get a new Chrome backing for my 2G, it's scratched to bit and i would like a new one. I've just ordered a new bezel and digitizer for my iPod for the second time and was wondering where the cheapest place to get a back would be from.. Any help or ideas are appreciated

    You have to be careful with 2g backs, it's hard to get all the parts out of the old one, especially the flex cable that's kinda glued in. Plus, I think a lot of the new back don't have those side rails in them.

    So i would be better off keeping the one i have, even though it's rather battered?

    I wouldn't recommend it, it's not worthbruining your phone over

    Man, I really hate the missing features on the mobile site sometimes

    I saw you said you got a new bezel for you iPod but thought you were asking about a new back for the iPhone. I still should have realized when you said " chrome"

    yeah, so forget everything I said
