New housing and faceplates for Slider
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Blitz Fist

Daydeal now has a neon green housing and many faceplates including white, silver, hot pink, blue, light blue, and more.
Sorry I don't have pics but daydeal isn't working. Try eBay for cheaper ones.

btw the faceplates are only the front piece of the housing, not the whole thing.

I'm glad they come with buttons... after my housing replacement my navigation is harder to do.

It's not the whole housing, but unfortunately you still have to take apart the whole thing to put it on.

If your planning on taking apart you whole phone, you might as well just get the whole body kit.(unless youve done it like 10 times) I think it looks better. As for the button thing, i dont know if you didnt align your buttons up right or what but i dont notice any difference.

Get the smoke bodykit!! when its dark(like at the movies) and you use your phone, It looks awesome!!!!

Hey is the face plate as hard to remove as putting on a whole new enclosure? I mean dont you still need to take the whole phone apart to replace the face plate? If its easier to replace the faceplate than the housing I will go for buing the black faceplate for me and the flower one for my girl.

Anyone know?

Thnx

Answered a few posts up... yes, you have to take it apart to put on a new faceplate... you don't take out the stuff in the faceplate enclosure until the last step in the process.

Here are the NEW faceplates.

Black =
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...&category=20361

Blue w/ blossom flowers=
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...&category=20361

White w/ red glitter hearts=
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...&category=20361

They are the newest ones and only $5.98 + S/H
The black one would look sweet with the silver but I saw that you need to take the whole phone apart to put face on that SUX I thought I could just take it apart without messing with the internal stuff (speaker- magnets and what not) oh well

Posted by: VMvirginmobile

as you've probally already read on this forum, it's not very hard to take it apart. i've never personally made a cake, but If I had, I'd probally say "it's a piece of cake"

cake is one of my favourite bands though

holy hymnal! the shipping is $5.95 a pop!

edit number three: the white sould look nice if there was a white battery, and the rest of the housing

cellular-blowout.com has a bunch of faceplates for $10.

Oh the black ones are so sweet. Too bad they don't have Buy it Now though. Oh well.

If I were to paint my housing, what kind of paint should I use? I want one that won't rub off on my hands or anything, cause I remember I painted an old air soft gun with spray paint and that happened and it sucked.

Posted by: MICHAELCORLEONE

Hey blitz I think you need to use the same paint they use on cars (the ones in spray paint form dont go to a body shop and ask them to paint it

) <-- LOL but I think the trick is to also buy a clear coat and apply a few coats after you paint it and the first coats dry.

Im not sure if thats the best solution but thats that what I did it to my pc case a few years ago and it was cool and didnt rub off maybe you should try it on something else thats made of plastic and see what happens.

If you do let us know if it works.

Maybe Ill try it and see if it works if not hey I can always buy a new enclosure for it. Heh heh

Hey ArunSenior04 what are you talking about there are no slider face plates on that site?

You do know everyone on here was/is talking about the V5 slider from VM.

Daydeals has all the face plates and enclosures for the Slider that I have seen I might start a thread asking to see peoples phones and put up pics but thats untill I fix mines up so itll have to wait.

Oh ya I forgot hey blitz check this one out.

If you were thinking about painting it all black, then I'd wait a bit... there are so many faceplates coming out now I can't imagine that an all-black housing won't be out sometime soon.
