Hey Slickwraps, currently rocking a dbrand White Carbon Fiber front and back on my black N5, but I'm looking to try out your blue glow series front and back. Is there any way I can purchase just the front and back without the sides? I feel like I'm wasting if I order the full package since the sides will just sit in a drawer and probably get lost...

Cheers!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] turdbogls:
this was a one off product from Weston and the "slick lab" guys. IMO, it looks fantastic...so much so that i re-installed my black leather back yesterday. so subtle, yet so awesome.

maybe they will bring this to life though in the future...sounds like they have some big plans for the skin business :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
Wait what .. "Reinstalled" ..can we reinstall a skin :what:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] knapz:
Yep. Use hairdryer.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] turdbogls:
you read it right. just be careful taking it off, store it on its original backing and use a book or something flat and heavy to "press" it, I installed it just fine yesterday, didn't even need the hairdryer (surprisingly) for some reason. been about 15 hours and no lifting or anything. I'll probably hit it with some heat tonight just to make sure though.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
"Hit it with some heat tonight" ..I know that the leather feel is good and all but please dont :D
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Shoops:
Where can I get this? I think it looks great without the nexus lettering.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] to0:
Has anyone considered building a screen protector into the front wraps? It's a little difficult to orient the skin around the screen protector and if either of them is even a small bit off, you get bumps all over the front of the screen.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hello,

Yes, Slickwraps was the first to come out with the inside screen for wraps back in 2010. We've tried many different options and this was the best solution. With that said anything is possible, for instance if 3M got involved and invented a new process of laminating layers onto their clear film. I have seen full glass replacements for the iPhone that uses this same idea but entails screen printing.

I do know R&D is working on something that would solve this. Last meeting we we're testing these new ideas, it seemed to work better.

Thank You!

Does anyone have pictures of the glow in the dark blue N5 skin? The only thing stopping me from ordering is that the nexus logo on the back looks to be thinner on the bottom, like the N than on the top where the S is... If anything, would it be possible to request a glow in the dark blue skin without the nexus logo cut out?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:

Yes, you sure can!

I'm new to this page but I've read many pages, and Weston could I also test out a bamboo skin?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
Are there any consumers on this thread too..or everybody is a tester now having excellent knowledge about all the R & D that goes into development and manufacture of vinyl skins :what:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] knapz:
LOL :highfive:

I noticed that trend too, which is why I offered to pay to test the new wood skin. I am sure they have enough competent "testers" within the company. Weston is just being nice enough to include us less competent "testers" join in the fun to possibly iron out any issues before they go for full production runs on these wood skins. 5 - 10 test skins to people that will take pictures and spread the word on XDA, Reddit, g+, etc goes a long way. The problem is that those skins are not even ready yet and everyone is so anxious to get their hands on them.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
LOL ..yup :D ..We dont even know how they cut the 3M vinyls or how different different textures with original feeling of it is given to the same 3M vinyl..

I very well know that I am a consumer who would install it and flaunt it everywhere coz nobody else has a N5 that looks like this except me.. I would keep it shiny till it dies or till I want a different look and feel (coz SW has so many options and even more are flowing in) and at that point I will place a new order..thats me..Not a tester :cool:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Deoy:
[MENTION=5582214]slickwraps[/MENTION] I love the bamboo. Nice job. Can you put it up on for sale ASAP?

P.S. Just got a replacement pebble. Will get both's wraps together :)

I was about to order some, but then I was scouring the thread and I'm seeing everyone getting free skins... So I got a bit sad and just skipped ordering.

Hello [MENTION=5582214]slickwraps[/MENTION],

I DM'ed you some days ago about my already placed order and you still haven't got back to me. Could you, please, reply? Thank you
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hello,

Yes, I was waiting for confirmation from our customer service team. Your order shipped 9 days ago. Please allow 7-15 business days for your order to arrive. Tracking will not update during international transit, until it reaches your country's customs.

Hope this helps!

Thank You! :)

[Nexus 5 Accessories] dastinger:
Hello Weston,

Thanks for the quick reply. I know it won't update during international transit but there is no info at all. Even when it still was at the US. But, yes, I will wait some more days.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] itsaaron123:
Quite disappointed, I placed an order a week ago, which was apparently delivered, but I did not receive the package. Called customer service, turns out the package was not insured, so now I'm down 50 bucks cause of this. How often does this happen at slickwraps?

Edit: Buyers should be warned that it isnt insured, and that if either slickwraps or USPS makes an error, the buyer is at a loss.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hello,

Thanks for contacting us.

So the tracking is stated DELIVERED? The procedure is for SW to contact USPS and follow up. I would say it's rare, however; 90% of the time it's fraud or mistaken shipping address was entered.

Please DM me your order # and I'll look into it asap. Regardless, if the package was insured by any shipping company UPS, FEDEX, USPS, if stated DELIVERED, then no claims can be filled on our part.

I would recommend contacting your local USPS and see if they are holding this package. In the meantime once I get your Order # I can have the team follow up with USPS.

Thank You,

Weston

Hello guys!

I'm browsing the thread around to find a good (or any) picture of your Neon Orange skin, but can't find. Would be the best on a white N5 cuzbI have that!

Nexus5 X Tapatalk Pro
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
Received..thanks a lot Weston..

And the install and finish is beautiful.. So I will be staying with SW for all my future purchases :D

Btw I have a small crater on the "LG logo" at the back..dont know why..

So I have a tip for everyone..many of you might know this already..so here it is :

While installing when u have small cutouts like for the mic on the top side or the sim card tray pin hole or on the bottom skin for speaker and mic ..first of all take the piece of skin in hand and punch clear holes in it(which have already been cut but the skin is still attached) with a toothpick or a compass..then remove those tiny pieces altogether and then apply the skin..I have perfectly installed the bottom piece with so many tiny holes through this method..

And apply the screen protector before applying the front skin..coz the sceen protector is bigger than the window in the middle..so the skin will overlap the protector a bit..i didnt do this and messed up the protector :(
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hello,

Shoot me your order #. I'll have some new screen protectors sent out!

Thank You!

[Nexus 5 Accessories] knapz:
Yeah I noticed that too. Not sure if the protectors are getting mixed up cause they are a tad bigger than the front skin window cut-out. The quality/fit of the front skin made me quickly forget that and I bought a different protector.:highfive:

Yes, really sorry I haven't replied. Been super swomped after they made me in charge of our SXSW Tradeshow Booth. 2 Weeks Away!! :eek:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] tintin1892:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Gzan23:
I'm sure this has been addressed but this thread is a bit lengthy. How do you get the corners on the N5 to stay down? No matter what I do the edges on the corners pop up since it isn't flat and is rounded. The wrap on my iPhone 5s worked perfectly because it's a flat surface but I can't get the N5 one on perfectly. It looks good minus the corners.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] M.Noury:
You need to use hair dryer or heat gun during installation, zero issues with hair dryer
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
+1 ..no issues on the corners here..use a hair dryer and done..I pull my phone out of the pocket all the time ..and no lifting nothing on the corners..

Okay, I couldn't hold out... Seeing all of these sexy skins I had to grab a back cover as well.

Opted for Black Carbon. Hope it turns out well. I'll be testing out some bumper cases soon, so hopefully they match up nicely!

Cheers for the code Weston.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
Weston ..you guys should start manufacturing skins for Galaxy S5 as soon as possible..loads of different designs..coz these are gonna sell like hot cakes..

Coz trust me that whoever decides to buy a Galaxy S5 will have to cover it up with a skin..

Coz that thing is fu**ing ugly naked ..ugliest phone I have ever seen for sure ..

Nexus 5 rules :D
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Haha, I agree.

Anyone who buys that phone isn't buying it because it's pretty! It definitely needs wrapping asap.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Gormsen:
So I'm thinking about getting myself one of these sweet skins, but before I do so, I have a question:

I have the White N5 and was wondering if any of the white back will be visible with the skin on? I notices this on Dbrands skins and since I'll be getting the brushes onyx skin I want to know if any of you, who have a white N5 could post a picture or two showing the line between the back and the sides?

Thanks :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hello,

No, Slickwraps will go edge to edge for that precision look and feel. The only white that you'll see is the Nexus logo.

I don't have any photos of this exact combo, I will search for one and get back asap.

Hey Weston,

First of all, love the website, so many options! I ordered a skin on Friday and got an e-mail saying it has shipped with a tracking number and everything. When I check tracking info, the only update I see is that the electronic info has been submitted as the package is still in "pre-shipment", is this a hold-up on your end or from USPS?

Same thing here. I'm from Portugal and I'm waiting for it since the 14th. The info I've got on the USPS website is exactly that. On the other hand though, I got another package from the US and the USPS tracking gave me perfect information so the issue is not with my country not updating things. Also, the other package got here in way less time.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] parker09:
Got mine on, opted for the brown leather after I saw a post on Reddit with it.

Mine didn't come with a sim card try pinhole but obviously not hard to create one, hardest part is the front screen protector & front plate I think, if you don't get it perfect you get a line of bubbles - at least from what I did a few times. Overall I think it looks good, I might take my front plate off because it just feels annoying especially since I use Pie Controls and using gestures is kind of annoying with this wrap. Great product though.

Hey Weston,

I'm interested in a slickwrap skin but I have some questions first.

I want to achieve something here with my nexus 5 but I don't know if this is possible. My nexus 5 has to have a stylish but playful look but it also must be protected from scratches and impacts!

So I was thinking of this:

Glow slickwrap

+

cruzerlite bugdroid circruit

+

Mime Ghost screenprotector

It would be beautiful to have a glowy nexus 5 and let it shine through the cruzerlite case. The case is semi transparant so it should let sun light in to charge the skin.

Is it possible to combine this? Can you put the skin on the Mime Ghost glass screen protector?

I think it is better to leave the side strips of the skin off because the cruzerlite is a thight fit.

I live in Belgium but If you want to let me test this you can send me the strips for free LOL? (No hurt in trying :D ) I'm also interested in the ebony wood skin, so if you want you can send me a sample too? :D I would eb the first Belgian to test them I guess!

If I have one of the skins I will tell my findings and post them here and also on the google communities https://plus.google.com/communities/112499690694066437077
