I was going to get mine sprayed by a mate who's a pro at doing custom spray decals, but I didn't want to risk it incase the 360 may develop a fault even though its been 100% perfect so far.

My vinyls arrived today and went on nice and smoothly.
However the faceplate one doesn't look right due to the plate being white in the first place. When I return to work on Wednesday I'll take me faceplate and spray it all black and then re-apply the vinyl which really doesn't leave any residues. It's also the hardest part to do.
In the first pic theres a vacant white bit near the ring of light. I just forgot to push the vinyl all the way back into the button area there. Looks really nice, but I won't be happy until I get to work and spray the faceplate cos the white bits look odd.

They look pretty cool, some really nice ones on that site.

Dunno if its just me but all of the skins I have seen so far just look really cheap and nasty, other than Nismo's which looks half decent. Think i'll stick to the default.
Mind you I even prefer the look of the core over the premium, maybe I have no taste

Nah, even I prefer the look of the core too. The 'fake' chrome cd faceplate made me LOL when I first saw it.

well i got round to buying one, and yes i screwed it up, but the side i screwed , no 1 can see it, so its ok, its bleeding hard to apply though, bubbled everywhere etc, DONT use a credit card to smooth it down as they suggest as this tears the thing, sponges 4 the win, as i discovered on the 2nd side, anyway
denarrrr!

It's upside down and the sides or on the wrong way.
On another note, the netgear thing looks stupid and the AC adaptor ontop the console is not a good look.
Soldato
tbh virii im laughing at it, but it does look better in real life, i dont get nokkons comments about the netgear adapter, that has nothing to do with the 360???, + the power brick is beside the 360, not on top, the pic is the wrong way n all. I mite do it again later as you can reapply them but ive got things 2 b doing
On a side not how friggin hard is DOA4, friggin solid

I went for the subtle look (also known as the 'Ghetto' E3 limited edition faceplate
Thats the one i want, dont know why they didnt use it on the final console!
