Just Got My White Glass Backplate For My iPhone 4

I ordered one white back yesterday for $38 after shipping beats paying $120 lol..Should be here on Monday!!! :) super excited!! Now I just need to buy best skins ever back skin and I'm good to go! I'll post pics if anyone cares lol
 
I wanted to buy one a few months ago but the $80 price tag was too much.
since its only 30 i might pick it up. are you going to leave the front black??
and also could u post a pic with black bumper when you get it :)

thanks
 
I just couldn't pass up the deal I was going to buy a cheap one off eBay but waited and BAM! sale. I'm going to leave the front black it reminds me of my white iphone 3GS which I loved lol. Sure thing :) I'll post pics asap.
 
Ok so I may get the white back from iResq but first has anyone got the liberation kit from ifix or something like that?
 
here is the white iphone back that i received yesterday :) it looks and feels very nice and no doubt an OEM part. Here are some pictures:

I just got mine in the mail today from that ebay seller in Hong Kong. Its really nice quality, however it isn't OEM. It seems to be a little bit thicker and a little bit taller. Also the wording on the bottom along with "iPhone" is a little bit higher than the OEM. My Griffin Reveal and Incipio NGP aren't fitting in correctly. Its very tight. The only case right now that seems to work for me is my Incase Snap. Doesn't bother me too much though. For $18 shipped, I can't really complain.
 
technically it voids the warranty yes. But if you are stupid enough to take your phone into an Apple store with the white backplate still installed then the joke is on you......

they wouldnt be able to tell if you simply replaced the white plate back to black.
 
well, i answered one of my questions, but do i need the phillips screws? Or can i just put the penalobes back in.
 
Use the coupon "SNAZZY" at checkout and get $5 off at iresq. Don't tell anyone I told you, but if you have to know, a little birdy by the name of Google told me about it.

Sweetens the deal. Just bit. I wish I had a matching clear Switcheasy vulcan though. my smoke looks good with black. it's such a good case though and only $20 maybe I will buy it again and in clear (and give the smoke to a friend, which I love with black backplate) or use them interchangeably.

White, here I come!

i just got mine in the mail, and it seems that the verizon one is different. I can't get the IResq to fit. Has someone else purchased this for verizon?
 
great, i wonder if i knock the top notches off if it will work okay, probably not. Dammit, I should have asked before i made this purchase.

If you have a Verizon phone the AT&T back plate won't fit.

Absolutely agree. I've been thinking about switching and when I asked my sources over at iFixDirect about red color swaps, they said at least till mid April. I do like the iresq backs, wish there was some matching borders.
