Found an alternative on eBay here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170512822114&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT for about $10 shipped. His leather laptop skins get positive feedback, so I think I might give it a shot.
Got a tip for us?

Anyone else excited about this SGP Leather Skin Guard?

Good to hear. I have the Wrapsol Ultra on mine also. I just ordered the black leather skin after your post saying it looks & works well. Going to leave my Wrapsol front on and try to see if I can get a free black bumper from Apple next week.
Just wish I could find a holster like the Seidio that would fit with a bumper
Pretty much none. It's barely thick enough to raise the back of the phone off a flat surface.
I got my white leather and black carbon fiber weave SGP Sking Guard backs in today. Overall, I really like them. I didn't realize how thick they were though! Should be very good protection for the back of the device. I've included pictures below of each with my Black Apple Bumper installed. There is no issue at all with interference from the Bumper. Both textures feel really authentic. The carbon fiber really feels like carbon fiber (and may really be, I can't tell), as does the leather.
One thing I can tell is that the white leather, although it looks really good on the phone now, is going to get VERY dirty. The texture just feels like it's going to collect all the dirt that comes into contact with it.
Also, the cut outs are perfect, but they are pretty close. I don't like how tight the camera and flash cut-out is, because if it's off even just slightly (like my carbon one is), it will throw off the alignment of the cut out for the Apple logo.
**Also, the white leather DOES have the issue where the camera flash interferes with picture taking. The black carbon does not. I assume it's because the white color is more reflective of the flash's light.

just wondering so far does your SGP white leather attracts any dirt? I'm considering to get this over the black leather version...
Ordered my leather skin for my iP4 and an Ultra Clear skin for my old 3G (now under girlfriend use) at 11pm on Saturday, and it shipped out early today. I'll probably get it tomorrow!
It's good to live in LA when the company is here too. I'll report back once it's on...

Just to be clear. It looks like a pretty big gap on the openings. Is that it or just an illusion and the skin guard is thicker than your usual clear stuff.
hubby got the white leather and white bumper and the white leather is too small.... you see slivers of black on one side and at the bottom
If anyone happens to have a picture of an iPhone 4 with the white leather skin and pink bumper, I'd appreciate it... My wife has been waiting on the white iPhone 4, but now we're considering other options.
I ordered the black leather back from SGP. However, when I got it I decided I didn't want to use it. The package was not opened and it is just sitting on my desk. If anyone would like to purchase it from me (paypal only) send me a PM and I can give you a sweet deal on it!
i'll try to remember to take a pic for you tonight..... hubby has the white leather and i have a pink bumper i can put on....
