its digital graded the scene in the movie was shot in cornwall (in an army training camp) it was a bright day they (ian tamghori and his bitches) wanted it too look seedy and dark so they applied an effect known as digital grading. Which made the minneral grey p800 look like what it did in the movie. The P800 was still a prototype SE gave a special pre production unit for filming purposes. Which was the dropped colour minneral grey (as you know SE went for the blue variant) How ever the released several batches of the minneral greay P800 for the public and many housings were avliable but theu have all died out and hard to come across. |

thanks jowi, there's a shitload of facias for P800 on ebay...but SE Canada says that they're not meant to be interchangeable, thats besides the fact that they don't carry any!

beware the shockingly bad quality of those housings they look nice for a week then the paint rubs off. |

as long as you get an original SE set, the quality is perfect.
they are not interchangeable in the sense that SE never meant for them to be changed like Style Up covers for the Z600. but they are sold be SE as spare parts for damaged phones and can thus replace the electric blue parts. an SE service center sold me my kit and did the installation too. |
