I found this site

They have pages of skins that you can choose from, some of them look pretty cool, others not so much.

What are your thoughts on Protective Vinyl skins? Would you get one?

Does anyone know of other sites?

Nah, not my style. Way too busy for me!

 

[Commy1]

yeah, wow busy indeed. I like that it would protect my precious rig, soft of and make it even more head turning but yeah..

How would the glue from the skin go on the 'soft touch' material when you decided to remove it?

Yes it does,somewhat. Now the question you have to ask yourself is....
Are they telling the truth?

Are you going to buy one and test? They are pretty pricey.

I would really like to see just a clear one. I dont want the graphics, just the protection.

Putting it straight on would be my worries. Mess it up once = throw it out.

I've seen the video with the instruction on how to apply them, unless you fully attach the whole skin you can deattach it while trying to get it straight on. Or at least that's what they show there.

Thinking about it, still undecided on what one I want.

 

[MattyB]

Hopefully they're easy to put on than anti-glare screen protectors. Tried to put one on my M11x last week. FAIL.

They are exactly like iPhone screen protectors but bigger. Screw up once and you're fucked!

 

[DDuB420]

Ive had my share of headaches when putting on screen protectors, good times.

Thinking about this one..

i really like this one, but i think that with shipping to eu and taxes and stuff it will cost too much to actually consider buying it :/
