[Q] Bezel around the screen - replacement??

Hi

I have damaged the metallic black bezel around the screen at a few places (especially the part above the micro usb port). I guess it is called Faceplate.

What I wanted to know is if I can replace this part somehow. If I look at the region under the screen after opening the slider, it appears as if it can come off.

If it is possible to replace it, does anyone know where can I buy one of these?? I have googled but could not find anything.

I have found only a full cover. Try searching milestone 2 housing on eBay.
Or here is the link:

Thanks dude. Now I have to find someone who can deliver it to India. BTW are you sure Droid 2 is physically exactly same as Milestone 2. They do appear same. Just wanted to know if someone has used this cover etc. Plus anything on the quality??

I've ordered one from the link above and I should receive it in the next 7-14 days so I'll let you know how I go but I'm 100% confident that the physical housing between the MS2 and D2 are identical.

I have received the housing (from the eBay link above) and fitted it last night. The case is a Verizon stamped unit and is 100% perfect, next time I think I'll just live with the worn look. Very fiddly job but does give you an appreciation of the engineering ... They use a lot of adhesive, pita.

Well I have managed to knick the display input cable and now have a one centimetre row smack in the middle of the screen that won't respond to touch. My fault, I thought I'd taken care to ensure no damage to some of these fragile cables but alas no

So, just ordered a SGII

Stick that where the sun doesn't shine Motorola!

Yeah, I know you couldn't care less but I feel better

Well thanks for the info. I won't have the luxury of buying a new one if I ruin my MS2 so I guess I'll stick with a little wear and tear. BTW nice buy!!
