Have to hand it to you it looks totally awesome, and I also find it funny that one of the "petrie dishes" you used to hold the parts is a magic mouse case. But it looks stunning, I'm guessing you ordered the parts and did the instilation yourself. The black with the red is nice it goes together much better than the other colors I've seen. So kudos to you:D

Edit: the pokemon figures are cool too
 
Sweet...if you could have made the home button red the phone would have been killer; but still, very nice IMO.

Honestly, I'd love it if the iPhone (as well as the iPod classic) went the route of the Nano and had some color options added to it. I'd buy a red iPhone in a heartbeat if it were the same shade of red and quality as my 5th gen nano.
 
I do have a red home button. The issue is it is ever so slightly see through, so you can see the flex cable behind it.
 
I like it with the black button too. Adds a nice contests to all the red.
Awesome job!

looks amazing but im way too chicken to do the front. im pretty good at dissassembling and reassembling stuff but to take the entire phone apart for the front makes me nervous.
 
Still, could you post a picture of your red iPhone with it on, please? Looks awesome.


No can do. You gotta dismantle the whole phone just to swap out the home button. I'm not doing that just for a pic sorry.


And to all the askers, I bought the kit online, I didn't actually make it.

I just put it together and decided to ditch the red home button.
