today is the 14th business day and i'm waiting for the postmann desperately.

i saw the black envelope in my dream last night :) can you believe that?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mohamed.qadiqadi:
Customs?

Guys from outside the USA,if you pay customs when ordering things online in your country, did you pay any customs on the skins?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
hold up we're gonna go draw on a white leather and white carbon fiber skin. we'll let you know.

---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 AM ----------

:( got an Order ID so we can look into it for you?

---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 AM ----------

No customs fees. It comes in a standard envelope and gets passed off as regular mail.

---------- Post added at 05:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 AM ----------

Regular ink smudges (like smudges) should be fine. We drew a bunch of zigzags with varying pressure. Only the parts that we really dug into the substrate remained after a vigorous cleaning. The "smudges" or light marks/brushes with the tip of the pen came off with no problem. All in all, about 85% of the ink came off.

Unless you're planning on getting drunk on battery acid, drawing a bunch of obscene images on ur phone, then waking up and changing your mind, you should be fine.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] fatum2002:
I believe that is a main reason why packages are delivered quite fast internationally - they do not pass customs check. Will it still be a standard envelope for 3 skins in a package?

Another question: is envelop a good enough? Because in Ukraine postmen don't care about packages... :(
[Nexus 4 Accessories] elzafir:
Nice. Good to know.

The reason I'm worried is because I've had several white TPU cases and ink smudges don't come off however hard I try.

Yes, we fit up to 15 skins in a regular envelope. No idea what your second question is asking lol.

BLACK TITANIUM IS LIVE

still uploading lots of images, but it is technically purchase-able.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] iNSPiRE.DS:
Hey there.

Haven't ordered yet cause I've been waiting for the Black Titanium one. Still don't see it on your website as an available option.

Will it be available soon?

Thanks in advance.

Ordered a Black and Silver/White Titanium skin! Order #19703. Can't wait to see it!

A black titanium one sounds incredibly sexy. I think I would insta buy that.

+1 for black titanium :) Cant wait.. Some pictures would be great..
[Nexus 4 Accessories] toth42:
For all you guys that already applied your skins - I bought a black leather skin for a single reason - to stop the friggin' thing from sliding off of absolutely everything..! Please tell me the skins are less slippery than the original glass?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mackster248:
In theory, it should provide a lot more traction for your phone. Anything is less slippery than pure glass I would assume.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] paulbadassbriant:
Well i've just ordered mine (carbon fibre) , if its as good as it looks, i'll have to get one for my Nexus 7!!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] M0D3RNAFR0:
Any one know if this will fit under the Rearth slim case?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
We can most certainly cut the skins without the "nexus" cutout, and have done so for many customers. All you have to do is put "no nexus cutout" in in the Special Instructions section during checkout. No extra charge

Again, we definitely can cut it w/o the "nexus" lettering. Just place a quick comment in the Special Instructions section during checkout specifying that you'd like it without the cutouts. If it makes you feel more comfortable, send us an email as well with your Order ID reference to reiterate your request. Below is a macro close-up pic of the black titanium. Realistically we're looking at about 6 weeks until the material arrives, another day or two to test the quality/structural integrity of the vinyl, and another day to get it integrated on the website.

Our skins will fit under *any* case.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
I'm looking into ordering the carbon protector along with the SGP front protector.

Awesome! Make sure to use the coupon code XDA
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Jaxidian:
I ordered one because of this. Didn't use the coupon though. You guys deserve the extra $0.90 IMHO. Thanks!

P.S. Am also very interested in the black titanium and black matte.

Definitely ordering a few soon. I'm liking the feedback from the company. That sold me alone. And as far as wood grain I vote for mahogany!

[Nexus 4 Accessories] kcbboy:
It'll fit but the ringke slim will most likely dent it because of the slight indentation in the middle of the back.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] XxSilent22xX:
Mine arrived today, and i love it. I ordered the titanium one and the quality is great (3M vinyl), easy to apply, and the texture is awesome. shipping was fast, shipped the 24th and arrived today the 28th. i am looking forward to the black titanium, hopefully that xda code is still good by then :D
[Nexus 4 Accessories] twistkill:
After looking at the macro pic, black titanium (which looks amazing) will be my backup choice. I think black matte will match the rubbery sides more closely. Whats the ETA on those? I would be willing to buy a couple right away! :P
[Nexus 4 Accessories] polobreaka:
just ordered 3!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Goog1e Phone:
Is anybody having any shipping delays? I still haven't received mines and it was shipped 11 days ago! ahhhh
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Knolly:
Wish I had known about the option to not cut the Nexus before I ordered, oh well!

Do you have any idea how awesome 3M wood vinyl can be?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Jaxidian:
Nice looking track bike!

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

Why does it take so long to get the material to test the integrity? You can simply go to 3M's site and request 4" x 8" samples (more than large enough to test the "NEXUS" cut) and get them within 1-2 weeks. Are you unable to perform the "NEXUS" cut on small pieces like that? Just curious...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
XDA code is good until 2018.

Matte black will never *officially* be offered on our website, as one of our key selling points is that all of our skins are textured. We have about 95,000 square inches of matte black vinyl sitting in our warehouse. If you want it, just send us an email (info@dbrand.com) and we can hook you up.

<3

Got an Order ID? We'll have someone in shipping email you to confirm that the delivery address you provided was correct. If you're on the West coast of the US, the latest it'll arrive is Wednesday.

We already have a 4x8 sample... that's what we took the macro picture of. Problem is, the die-cutting machine literally won't accept a piece that small. We even tried sticking the sample piece onto a full roll and cutting it. We won't get too technical, but let's just say it didn't work. The testing is really only a formality and really only takes about 15 seconds. The reason the wait is so long is because we ordered a full 150 foot roll of it and it's being made fresh. We've pretty much already committed to the material. Even if it doesn't have the proper structural integrity to support the "nexus" cutout, we'll still offer it (just without the "nexus").

For everyone super excited about the black titanium, please be forewarned that it doesn't have the same _extreme_texture_ that our current titanium has. It still looks super badass though.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] formicae:
That sounds all right to me, the texture is pretty _extreme_ on the regular titanium, but subtler would be cool on black. Stuff is really tough though.

Edit: What's the easiest way to get in touch about a custom cut (actually no cut, I just need a 4x7" rectangle if you can supply it)? Email? PM? Note with my next order?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] iNSPiRE.DS:
Great timing! :) Seems the website was just updated. By the way, the Black Titanium preview isn't centered. :P

Not complaining here, just giving you a heads up because due to the perfectionist level you guys convey, I'm sure you'll want to work on it

Just order black and white Titanium, get it sent out to the UK ASAP :) (19706)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Should be called just "titanium"... not sure how that white popped in there. We'll update that ASAP.

No, we absolutely know that it's not centered. We're still updating all the image files, it's a tedious process on the back-end (has to be done one by one through a control panel, not an FTP upload). Once they're uploaded, all the images will be in the same position and the same size as the black titanium. From there we'll do some CSS updates to center it all.

Wait, do you guys get another email once it ships?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rreno:
And in that case, do you give 15 individual packages for each skin?

Woohoo! Gonna place an order right away!

So, the black carbon fiber listed is already the blacker 2013 version, am I right?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
You do, unless you entered an invalid email during checkout (for example forgot the .com or put gmai instead of gmail). If that was the case you'll get an email that we manually send out, forwarding the failed delivery attempt and adjusting the email address. That wont be until we've started processing orders later tonight. If you entered something incorrect before the domain, you're SOL (unless it was a misspell of your name which is also a part of your email address, in which case we'll adjust that as well).

EDIT: Thought you said "once it's ordered"... Whatever same answer still applies.

The max packages that fit in one envelope is 5. If you order 15, we put three in each packaging sleeve.

The new one isn't available yet. We'll use it once we've run through the 100,000 square inches we have in stock. You won't be able to tell the difference unless you have both in front of you.

We'll be in and out over the next 5 hours while we're updating the page with all the new purchase interface devices. After its complete, we'll be F5ing all night to answer your questions. Really great photos are coming in about 1 hour, the photog Robots are working on them now.

For international shipping there is a tracking code?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
We'll post some pics in about 1 minute. We just finished shooting them and cleaning up the dust.

...so THIS is why you were so anxious to get your order!!!!!!!! As a Female Robot, I'm not sure how to feel about this. Definitely going to have to find out which Robot filled this special request.

It was definitely only filled due to a special request. We would never just send pictures of boobs in a random order.

While they are some pretty nice tits, I would ask that everyone please edit their posts which quoted the picture before it was [hidden]. We wouldn't want this thread to get taken down by a mod!

For $3, we aren't able to offer tracking codes (an option that ranges from $15 to $28 depending on your location). Don't worry, International orders arrive pretty fast considering the price you pay. We've found that European orders usually arrive within a week.

Love you.

I posted this on the FB page but want to post it here too.

I ordered my red skin a while back. In jest I asked on their wall how I could find it in the world because I figured a shipping driver was taking it on a world tour. They responded with the same response given here about how it was not cost effective. No big deal I was just kinda making a joke. Couple days later I get a email from them saying they were shipping a new one to me because it had been a while and I had not received it. I responded with hey dont do that just yet we have had holidays and bad weather here so the postal service could just be slow.

I was told in the email that if I get both skins to keep them both. Which I was shocked by, most companies ask you return the extra one.

Once the skin gets here Ill be happier then a puppy with two peters.

Got my original titanium skin the day after my Nexus. Good thing too, I was terrified to do much with the phone until the skin got here. I can personally vouch for the reapplication prowess of the vinyl (I have many traits, but a steady hand is not one), as well as the precision of everything. Looks great, feels good, hopefully protects for a long time, or at least until I come up with a good idea for a custom skin. That Canada hockey one is sweet, but probably poor form for an American to rock with the Olympics coming up. Keep up the good work.

I did this on my gf s3 for the front skin, you really only have 1 chance to get it right because if you try to adjust it it will take the screen protector with it and stretch the screen protector.

For the back of n4 I can't imagine why you would want to use it with a screen protector, doesn't make any sense. Leave no adhesive residue when you take it off.

great day everyone! we're all going to go recharge our batteries, we've been on a 48 hour shift with this release of black titanium... pretty sure that guy over there is starting to hallucinate. any orders from today will not ship out tomorrow, there's just literally not enough capacity around here to get them all out in the next 9 hours. if we weren't all so low on battery it might be feasible, but we don't want to end up sending things to the wrong address or putting the wrong skin the sea of black envelopes. everything from today forwards will go out on Monday at 6am.
