While not a manufacturing engineer, I am an engineer so I understand. I just thought you might have smaller/non-manufacturing tools that your guys (artists?) use in creating the cutting specifications for your larger-scale tools. Guess I was wrong. :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
No secondary manufacturing tools. Just a metal ruler, 27" iMac, a pirated copy of Illustrator, and the big Boss cutting machine.

Since I was finally able to order an Official Google Bumper today I went ahead and grabbed the carbon black skin. These guys won me over with a fantastically humorous email I sent regarding the skin's thermal protection potential (plus they look sexy as hell with the bumper); and hell, even if I don't use it (which I totally will) I just wanted to give them money for making me laugh.

Are these skins swappable?

I have a carbon and a titanium on the way.

The black carbon will arrive a few days before the titanium so I know I will want to remove the carbon and put on titanium
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Yes. Put the old skin on the 3M wax paper backing from the new skin. Remove using a pin to pry in-between the skin and the device, this way you won't crumple the corner.

That looks really nice. Is that a poetic bumper you have? If so has it started falling apart like many claim it does? I see by the usb port it's uneven
[Nexus 4 Accessories] CSX321:
I can tell it's not the Poetic bumper, which doesn't look like that at the bottom. I didn't have a problem with mine coming apart, but I've switched to this one, which I like a lot: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLACK-CLEAR.../350692488954?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:US:3160
[Nexus 4 Accessories] th3xeroeagle:
nice + free shipping, how are the buttons though?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] CSX321:
Stiff-ish. But it makes little pretense of being anything other than a layer of rubber over the real buttons. Overall it doesn't bother me, because I like the rest of it so much. It fits snugly, is easy enough to slide in and out of my pocket, and it sticks really well to the wireless orb.

Edit...Here's a pic of the translucent back.

Hey dbrand, ordered a black leather and black carbon, gone through paypal, however it's for a shattered glass nexus 4.. Could see some custom work with titanium stuff done before applying the skin, forgot to write about it in the comment box. Order hasn't shipped as far as I can see, order number 21647..
[Nexus 4 Accessories] th3xeroeagle:
Dang lucky!! Looks better than the site :D i think i got mine today in montreal but not sure im at work till 6 :'(
[Nexus 4 Accessories] formicae:
The black titanium has a lot more depth to it than the other ones I've tried (silver titanium, black leather, I've also seen the black carbon in person), colour-wise. Been looking over at it on my desk all afternoon, and as the light changed over time it looked completely different. In broad daylight it almost has a bronze cast to it, then you tip it to one side a bit and boom, deep black.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] andy o:
Has anyone tried to remove the actual shattered glass first, and then apply one of these skins on the bare plastic? I'm wondering two things basically. If the glass can be easily removed, and if these skins are thick enough to replace it cleanly. My glass back is shattered, but I had put a transparent back screen protector which is keeping the glass contained, and I'm using a Ringke Slim case at the moment. I don't think installing one of these skins on top of the protector would be a good idea, and if I even attempt to take it out all sorts of glass shards will be coming out with it.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] andy o:
OK since reading this very informative post, there's a slight change of plans from my previous post in the last page.

dbrandSkins, which model is the thickest and/or more rigid? Or are they all the same? I'm trying to replace the glass by using one of these, if they're too thin I'll have to somehow reinforce a bit (maybe get two, one on top of each other :)).
[Nexus 4 Accessories] scream4cheese:
They're pretty thin. They're thinner than XtremeGuard screen protectors. I don't think it will work out too well if you take the glass back off..

No, I mentioned it looked like bronze at some angles to the light. But it also looks totally black at others. Personally I like it, but I could see how people would want something a bit blackity-blackerer (yes yes y'all).
[Nexus 4 Accessories] andy o:
dbrandSkins said something like 0.2mm, but I would like to know if this is for all, or some textures are thicker than others. S/he said for example that the black titanium one might be thinner:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37254770#post37254770.

Also, I thought these were rigid, but I guess not.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] scandalousk:
I got my dark titanium skin in the mail this morning! damn that was fast. Shipped on monday and it arrived in the early hours today which makes shipping time around 48 hours lol.

Edit: Just applied it and it looks so awesome! Couldn't be happier. Applied it one go, no hassle what so ever and it fits perfectly, cutouts are perfect as well. I don't have the golden, brownish tint other have described even when looking at an angle. But perhaps I'm not looking correctly, or it takes a while for it to happen. So I'll post about that at a later time/date.

All in all. I couldn't be happier.. It looks gorgeous.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
It really depends on what angle and under what lighting you're looking at it from. That being said, you're not alone. The only two dark titanium options that 3M offers are this one with a slight burnt brown hue, or one with a very strong navy blue hue. This one is as close to black as we can possibly get.

Just shipped out about 2,500 orders. Expect an email confirmation soon.

We f*cking love you, XDA. We have some very important information for our US customers: Delivery times are going to be substantially quicker, more efficient, and with a much lower rate of "undelivered" failures. We discovered two major reasons that our shipments weren't making it to their final destination, or took 2-3 weeks to arrive (crazy time considering how close our geographic proximity is):

We weren't using return address labels. Many US jurisdictions will not deliver mail that has no return address. Solution: Use return labels.

We were using black envelopes. When an envelope goes through the chain of delivery, it is ink-stamped to validate that the envelope has enough postage to cover the weight. This ink can NOT be seen on a black envelope (for obvious reasons). Solution: Use canary yellow envelopes.

The new envelopes will arrive soon. In the mean time, we've already started using return address labels on all our shipments. This will absolutely resolve the issues US customers are having. Exciting stuff, people!!!!

WARNING:

A lot of non-XDA members seem to be taking advantage of our "XDA" coupon, so we've changed it. New coupon code is"eXDAclusive" (no quotes).
