Sorry, your keypad just looks a little different to mine and it matches your phone beautifully, so I assumed you sprayed that too...  
Nice work! |

If you rub down the cover before you spraypaint it, the paint will attach really well.
Use quality paint, not the cheap stuff anf a paint gun and the result will rule! |

Golden boy, calm down its not your phone so stop worrying!
i personally dont think much of people spraying their covers, and am irritated by people constantly asking in the forums, "where can i get differant coloured covers from?". MY view on the matter is that ericsson shipped these products as they were supposed to be kept. But people always wanna mod them, its a way of seeking perfection and eternal happiness! 
so i stay out of modifying my phone, im happy as it is, and golden boy, if you share this opinion, stop being so narrow minded and see that others want thier phone to look different.
Good job anyway, its now certainly individual... |

That's three parts on the cover which you can take out before you spray,
1: Ir part is just a small black cover and you can seperate from the cover.
2: LED on both side can be pull out from the cover.
3. The silver part must becaful, because this part is actually stick with the front cover with Gum, so after you spray you have to use gum to stick it back.
Hope this help.
Advice: Only do it if you have an extra cover. |
