How thick are these skins? I'd love to have on normally but I like to put a case on whenever I plan on going out drinking to prevent "incidents," so I'm hoping a case can still fit over it.

Anyone have the titanium one with the official LG bumper? i have the bumper and with the sides being silver-ish i think it would look sweet with the titanium skin.

EDIT: Also if anyone has the bumper with the black leather please post pics.

It's no thicker than the Skinomi skin I previously had on the back, we're talking a fraction of a millimetre. dbrand themselves have said it works fine with the LG bumper (on Reddit, I believe).

Rearth slim fits fine, so does the Diztronic. But I've been carrying my phone naked today just to bask in compliments and '...what...phone...is that?' comments.

I took these pics with my Galaxy Tab. I bought the black leather skin with the official Google LG bumper. I love it. I was using my S Wave TPU case because I felt like my back would get damaged with the bumper but now with this skin I am very confident my back will be protected using the bumper.

Wow, the black leather looks nice. I have one on its way, looking forward to using it when I get tired of the metal.

They actually told me I can peel the old one off and swap back and forth so long as I am careful and stick it to the backing paper, which is great, adds a lot of bang for buck.

Did you see the reddit post's link?

What do u mean by protective? it'll prevent the glass from scratching but don't expect any drop protection

One of my concerns is my ring hitting the back glass. The main surface is obviously protected with this, but what about the very edge of the glass on the back (the corner of the glass, if you will)?

I have just asked them the very same question. I live in Denmark and usually it is not worth the price when shipping is added. However they have international shipping for 3 Canadian Dollars.

The reply:
"We ship worldwide for $3 Canadian. Just select Denmark from the list of countries during the Shipping Information part of checkout. Hope this has helped!

    I've got a slightly different request.. I'd like to see a skin that is a bit less flashy. Don't get me wrong, the skins on your website do look good, but they also scream "Hey, I've got this skin on the back of my phone"... and I'd like something more subtle, which might be what kcbboy was going for as well. Maybe something that is nearly all black with a bit of texture (but not leather)? Or something along those lines.

    Unless we're mistaken, we thought kcbboy was going the complete opposite way with it (he wanted the holograms to show?)

    The closest thing we could do for you in terms of something "less flashy" is a matte black vinyl. However, it has no texture on it and isn't the same thickness/caliber as the ones we currently offer. Due to the difference in thickness, it may be rather hard to apply without messing up the "nexus" letters. In fact, it would probably have to be cut without the "nexus" cutout. The only reason we're able to even offer the letter cutouts is because the textured vinyl we use is thick enough that the structural integrity allows the floating portions of the letters (for instance the 'e' and 's') to not go limp during installation. Hopefully we're not getting too confusing here.

    If you want, we can post some pics of the N4 in black leather later. It really isn't flashy in our opinion, it's really quite subtle/classy. Then again, to each his own.

    Any coupon code for the XDA community?:laugh:

    Yeah, is there a coupon available for xda members? That might just put me over the edge and make me buy a few....

    Honestly guys the price was $8.00 and we had to bump it to $9.00 due to the amount of effort that goes into removing the "nexus" letter cutouts with each unit. These cutouts are very intricate and very difficult to remove (requires tweezers). If the consumer was to remove them on their own, it would result in many ruined letters.

    A major competitor of ours (Ghost Armor) is charging $19.99 for a back piece and $20-100 for shipping (to Canada). We charge $9.00 for the skin and $3.00 for shipping (Worldwide).

    That being said, we're the most amazing company on the entire f*cking planet and are willing to give XDA members an additional 10% off. Coupon code: XDA

    Hey guys!

    Haven't been around in a while, but just wanted to drop by and say thanks for everyone's continued support. We're hard at work on a 100% brand new website. Beta launch will be in February. We're also going to be releasing matte black and white shortly after the launch of the site, you can check out the material below. The key feature of this new material is enhanced grip. I'll frequent this thread a lot more so feel free to post up if you got any questions/concerns/order inquiries. As always, emails get responded to within 24 hours (usually within 3h these days), so email us if there's anything urgent regarding your order.
