Link to the screen protectors please?
Sorry. I meant to type 10 screen shields. What I bought came as 9. Here's the link.

ebay for $6.50, just search iphone 5 bumper. I made sure mine was from the US so it would get here faster
Just got this case. It's a little looser on the iPhone than I'd hope but the seller included a note saying that since it was designed before the iPhone was release he'll send a replacement case or full refund.
Used to have pick your color but not now. Maybe some more later. I just got them today, fast shipping.

White for me and purple for the wife, for now. Leather holsters are coming tomorrow.
The bumpers are not as soft as the IP4 bumpers but are still nice for $5.99.

Quick review. More later.
I'll take pics of it on the slate black iPhone 5 when I get home and have a second camera available.
Just wanted to say it's fantastic and thanks again to the OP.
The only thing that was a little off about it was the power button up top. Out of the package, it sat a little too low. This would cause the power button on the iPhone to be pressed in even if you only touched the upper-right-hand corner of the bumper, so it would activate the screen if it sat upside-down in your pocket.
I simply took the bumper off, and pressed the power button piece upwards from inside the bumper, pushing it up into it's place a bit better.
Now it's perfect!

Not sure I like the clear side part. What I would like is on a white iP5, to have a white side and orange on the rubber part that you can see from the front and back...very specific, I know
BTW, I've used a cheap $2 bumper on my iP4 for a long time and it's very close in quality to my original Apple branded bumper.
Hopefully we get more color options

I put scotch tape around the inside of that bumper. It helps with the sharp plastic edges scratching the phone.I'll take pics of it on the slate black iPhone 5 when I get home and have a second camera available.
