Hi,

I have a feeling this may be a proper repost though I have searched the forum for an answer...

I currently have a velvet blue k850i which I want to reskin with the newer quicksilver housing. There are loads of genuine OEM green and blue fascias on ebay and other sites but I cannot find the quicksilver part ANYWHERE :S

Has anyone managed to track this thing down yet? I only want a genuine SE one though...

Cheers

No mate and I have been looking for ages.

Even the genuine black / green OEM ones are quite rare on eBay as some are advertised as OEM but don't even have any SE markings on them.

I think he means the all black version with the chrome trim.

If you mean this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBay[....]s%3DK%252BD%26otn%3D3%26ps%3D5

Then sorry housing is currentley unavalible right now for that colour because it is a brand new colour and i think might be limited edition sorry mate.

Shame..... I don't see why the parts for that scheme are so hard to come by. I found this one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/100-GEN[....]ViewItem?hash=item250281546750

But I asked the seller whether it came with the power and vol buttons and it doesn't I've also seen just the keypad on its own, but that's a bit pointless really.

I would get the one above. Then you can use your buttons....if yours is silver you could get a cheapo green housig and use the buttons from that.....


May cost more but if you want the quicksilver one a lot then thats your best bet
