Where did you order a backshield from? Normally I go Clarivue but they dont seem to have one. I prefer not to go for wet application protectors.

The one I like, it's very convenient (sorry, I can't leave links ) 111.puremobile.com/lg-mobile-ccf140agcawh-folio-case-optimus-g-white (just replace 111 Sorry!!!

I also got the OEM Bumper case.

It's freaking awesome and fashionable! I love how it adds look and a bit of protection without huge bulk!

Does this fit on e975?

Sent from my LG-E975 using xda app-developers app

As far as I can tell, it has the same dimenssions as the E973, so, in theory, it should fit.

So how does this bumper compares to a case like Otterbox?

I mean esthetics are good, but does it protect the glass on both sides or is it just a bare minimum.

(protection against a 4 yo boy is key for me)

Well, it creates a "bump" over the back and front. So, unless it is droped on something pointy, It is protected.

I've posted a video where I explain every specs, you can take a look!

Not that I have seen. I tried a silicon slip cover but it was constantly covered in dust, just a magnet. The OEM bumper is fantastic thought, protects the phone well, doesn't add too much bulk, and looks good. Definitely worth the $25.
