I made this custom back panel for my iPhone 4 for the world series. The panel is orange glass with a custom made SF Giants vinyl sticker and an Apple bumper. GO GIANTS!

Very nice! I mean, I'm a Yankees fan, but nice work on it - looks great.
 
just super glue the flash diffuser in?


Yep thats how apple did it. If you look at any of the pictures on here if peoples official apple black part on the inside you can see they have just glued it in. Also when I bought the diffuser from the previous link the guy advised me on how to apply it to the backplate. He said a small amount of clear super glue applied to the diffuser on the side you are sticking down would be ok. If you didn't want to do that you could drop it into the hole and then glue round the sides around the diffuser and the backplate.

I will post my advice and review once I do this myself :)

cool I'll probably give it a try.
 
anybody know of any US based iphone parts shops that have all this stuff? Don't feel like waiting 10-20 days for stuff to come from Hong Kong, and would rather order the back assembly, camera ring and flash diffuser all in one place
