[MAYSSAAHh]

everyone just buy your colourware thing from ebay. just type in housing blackberry cover (type in what model your phone is) and it should come up! plus its sooo cheapp !

[jordzlikez]

@joey50joey50 if you go on ebay you can find more colours, with coloured key pads. i have a neon green bold 9700 at the moment

[al7rof]

[justgirl25]

does this really work?????????

[XPW1NC322XB3THYX]

how do you take the keyboard off does it jus come off hwen u take the metal frame xxxx

[FlinstoneX]

@XPW1NC322XB3THYX

yes, it just comes off. when you take the 'frame' off, you can just lift it out.

[njbruinsma]

my tool brook!! when i tried to release the frame side clips!! how come i need so much force to release them?? is that normal

[LuciianLadiie]

What is that called?

[Deyadama]

Excelent!! the best..

[GeezPink]

you make it seems to easy. T_T

[VALVEGAMER20]

BECAUSE THEY BUY THE ITEM AND PAINT IT WITH PAINT THAT WONT COME OFF

[Tarnjit69]

The right some of one of the side clips doesnt click in HELP!!!!!

[truedominicanstar]

20 or so bucks is not a lot to have a whole new color with no weight added. I got my Bold in Feb. Then my heart broke recently when I saw they released the white one! I was already trying to find away to get it. Give my black BB to my husband? Sell it? Non of these Ideas were working my amiga showed me a website where they have a bunch of colors for models! Found the white one and it prettier than the new white one on tmobile! all white/chrome no grey! I say it's better and cheaper to do this!

[J90lude]

I wonder if this will fit the 9650? Hmm....

[usman2hype92]

wtf.. thats so easy compared to the iphone

[jesseyvanjole]

thank you! for the good intructions!

[chikkenfries]

@driftnut56 but they take forever to ship!

[driftnut56]

@chikkenfries it took them only a week and 1/2 to ship my order in Canada, Calgary

[FireWorkAddict]

Maybe Overpriced, But The Quality And The Variety Of Colors Is Amazing.

[TereCY]

does the bold 9700 have a housing security seal, so if your seal is broken (beceause you openend and unscrew the blackberry) that your guaranteed for 2 years will expire??? please if it haves a security seal where is it located?

[gamblr4life]

can u switch out the middle plate housing or not?

[truedominicanstar]

@gamblr4life @gamblr4life yes you can switch out the middle plate! Just gotta read and make sure it is full housing w/middle plate its pretty obvious when you see the pics! Here check it out! ^_^

[jaydeng95]

@gamblr4life i have seen replacement housing but only in black, no other colour but if you can find another colour it could be done just harder then replacing the outer covers

[r803]

@shiningwizard327 Get one from eBay. I've got a white one from there.

[shiningwizard327]

@r803 Thanks! They got some nice colors, i just checked. How is it working out for you so far?

[Freka699]

@shiningwizard327 just go on ebay bud :)

[s3oodi1]

thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you!

this will help me replace my keyboard :)

[bcbbanga4l]

what if you just wanted to replace the top bezel?

[vvvNikolayvvv]

fortunately here in Thailand i can buy it for MUCH cheaper. and i'm pretty sure those parts are made in china and WAY Overpriced

[whatnub]

@vvvNikolayvvv Nope, far from it I know chinese quality when I see it and it didn't come close to the paint job colorware offered.

[dfrent]

Can't wait for mine to show up. Hopefully before the weekend!

[falconreconeight]

Over priced way overpriced.

[becek]

how much is it?

[MrMuscleMacho]

160

[LuvinPapaYah]

colorware is hot,but the cost to do this is to

high for an average individual.

Is the blue frame part metal or plastic?

[Superdordor]

diamond lmao

[FlinstoneX]

@LuvinPapaYah

to be honest, its pricy as hell. there are MUCH better websites that have premade colors, and its A LOT cheaper, and the SAME material. Colorware is amazing if you want to do a 100% customization, but the other sites are great if you know the color you want, say a full blue phone, and then you can find the packages they have.

[carlvanheijst]

@FlinstoneX Do you know the name of companies that offer the same job that Colorware offers? Thanks!

[MrJwagon]

cool
