someone asked on this section how people paint their phones and I gave details there.
This time all I did was buy metallic enamel spray paint.
Took the peices and left them overnight in paint thinner (to make sure it's clean)
Dried it.
Then painted it using even sprays.
Three coats minimum.
Left it to dry for 3 days. (between coats leave to dry for at least 12 hours)
To make it look super shiny as if with a plastic coat (not anodized) use a clear enamel over it.
Also you dont need a top coat for some sprays, so make sure.
That's all.
When the phone is finished drying I'll post it with the SE logo, and the front side (although I left the earpeice blue since I'm afraid of any greyness rubbing off on my ear lol, but that's still unlikely i'm just being safe).
Also search my Titanium P800 thread for details on how to make it brushed metal style.
Post comments there too 
Hope that helps.
