Hi, guys..

I just came back from Korea to see my best friend and I actually found a metallic back cover made out of titanium. (It's actually metal!!!!!)
Cuz..I tried all those ones sold in Ebay basically all ****!!!
I have no idea if it is sold in the US but if you want to buy and you have plans to visit Korea go to Yongsan (it's SUPER BIG A$$ electronic market)

Anyways It's called K-Zar made by Uberlicht ( I don't know how to pronunciate that word)

I've check their website but it's under construction...

I paid 65000 Won which is roughly $60USD
Anyways all this to say Im actually happy with this product!!


P.S no stupid comment please

Check it out

I don't actually like it!
 
Looks like i am not the only one with the cover. This koreiphone guy did get it and posted a review. It is abit different from mine though. The lens holes and the color are different. Mine is darker. Looks like mine was a trial model or something...... Oh well, i am still the only one to have my model around here so no biggie.
 
Titanium Replacement back covers.....

Titanium backs are rare, and the $60 price tags is actually not expensive for Titanium. Try making one on your own and you will see. Titanium is a hard material to work with, unlike aluminum and plastic, which are easily geared toward mass production.

I say this from personal experience working with Titanium.

Below is something I've been working on ....These are custom precision cut solid Titanium...let me know what you all think.

Design Feedback?

Thanks folks.
