My 8525 Took a Spill Today

My question: Given that I dropped my 8525 on pavement this morning (it fell out of my coat pocket as I ran for the bus) and given that the phone seems to be working normally and the screen has no damage, does anyone know if it's possible to send my phone in to have all of the external plastic pieces replaced and how much that would cost? I plan on having this phone for a while and the superficial damage to the outside will really, really bug me. There also seems to be a crack in the bezel around the power button.

you can buy a replacement case but you will be out of warranty. Well, you are out of warranty already now that the case is cracked anyways. I've replaced 2 sets of cases...its not too bad.

Where can I find a replacement case? Where did you get yours? Thanks.

Just found a tutorial on Utube on how to take it apart. Definetely something I dont want to do. Guess I will be sending back to HTC to fix

Mmm, I do not mind taking it apart, but it reads Dopod on it.... damn.
Well, I guess once my phone gets a little more cracked...
