Looks awesome! Can't wait to get mine now. What color smart cover do you have?
I'm still debating between a black or navy (thought it looks more gray to me) leather smartcover
Got a tip for us?

do you have to state you want an apple logo or is it already included? and the color? I have black 64G wifi only on order - I would like the black iCarbon with the chrom/silver colored apple logo?
I have a white ipad and i ordered the black carbon fiber because i wasnt sure if it would be the same shade of white, but those pics look pretty good. Im now second guessing myself. I went back to the website and now they are charging 4.95 for shipping when it was free last week. I dont knwo what to do
If I hadn't just installed a clear Bodyguardz on the front and back I would so be all over one of these. They look freaking sweet. I might get one in due time but for now I will stick to the Bodyguardz
Hmmmm that's odd I just checked the site again an the option to state what color apple logo is gone. When I ordered mine last week it gave me the option to pick what color apple logo I wanted.
Interesting, I didn't want the white apple decal either with my black carbon skin, and asked on my order for a black or clear. They emailed me saying they put the note on the order. I'll see what I get.
Also, for the ATT 3G ipad2 the back skin covers the SIM tray. not a deal breaker, you can peel it back, and I;ve never opened the tray on my iPad1.

Yeah, the 3M DI-Noc is the only one to get, imo.
Many many companies will be selling this product, the only differentiation being the pattern cuts. I assume the "perfect" pattern cut will emerge in time.
very EASY install indeed.
from my last post till now + some time to take some pics I was able to install it rather quick, easily and painlessly
took a quick pic of what it would look like without the white apple decal.
I'm not 100% sure but i think the Apple logo cutout is slightly smaller than the actual logo on the ipad
Corners were a lot easier to deal with than I thought as well

It says nothing about a logo? How do you get the logo. For me, no logo, no sale. Any replacement or warranty come with them?
Warranty only covers any damage or defects before applying the skin, no replacement warranty that other places like bodyguardz has.
The apple logo comes with the skin. I assume you get white if you order a black one and black with the white one. Probably can try to ask for a specific color when ordering it, but I'm not sure if they fill out those requests
I know cbronfman was asking about the grip-ability of the carbon fiber skin on the iPad; it is definitely easier to hold and not as slippery as the bare aluminum on the back.
Alright, I bought the back black carbon fiber skin from iCarbons based on this thread. Good sales job, guys. 
Figure it'll get me through until I get my Portenza case

A question for those that have gotten this skin. Can you see the outline of the Apple logo sticker through the skin? From the pics it appears to me that the logo sticker is just a squeare one that you apply first and then place the full back cover ontop of that. I am concerned that there will be an outline of the square logo sticker visible. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Yeah I just watched the install video. I see how it all works now. Time to order one of these bad boys.
WOW
Great pics, I'm sold. Will need to wait for another free shipping event, since I'm in Canada...
I just bought one but does anyone think that these would be installed over one of the wet clear skins? I have a Bodyguardz on the back currently and its installed perfectly. If it could be installed over it that would be awesome. I have seen youtube reviews of skins like this for the iPhone that have been applied over screen shields on the front so it may be possible.
