but for the full story I direct you to the thread
http://www.genmay.com/showthread.php?t=775108

it has more photos.. and a breakdown of what the guy did to get his phone to that condition.

make sure you read his story (it is broken up through the thread) don't bother with other contributors.. it is mostly questions which he answers, or dickheads.

Actually I found it a bit... overboard.

This guy has access to some serious kit and obviously has a few bucks lying down the back of his orange sofa.

I wondered if anodizing was as similar when it was first done,
Soooo expensive, however way cool. I imagine Mr Jobs getting his phone done

I'm all for modding stuff, totally, but It'd suck pretty badly if the iPhone broke and you needed a replacement. Same with laptops, iPods, etc.

I guess I fall into the 'cheapskate mods only' category.

Total respect for it, though. The end result looks great.

Jesus, that forum has some real shitheads on it.

I agree with 'PSUGrad', one of the posters on that thread. Such a waste of money and resources that could have been used to do something useful.

Sick mod, though. He must have been shitting himself when the iPhone 3G was announced. I very much doubt you can put 'TiN' on plastic.
