Bold... back in black

Well, I ordered the black bezel from CNN and damn the bold looks nice with the black bezel.

Read the fine print though... I noticed today that the buttons are not included, so you have to strip the buttons off the silver bezel and apply to the black. Also.... its not as easy as the curve to put together or take apart... very frustrating but with some patience.... you can do it : ) .. but its not for the nervous or faint of heart. LOL

Also noticed on cnn while watching the assembly video... that there is not a DENIM battery cover for the bold. lol





: )

wish CNN had included the black buttons...... such a pain to transfer and they didn't stick well to the new pins inside. Almost broke out the crazy glue... but I resisted !

The Bold looks amazing. I won't dare to remove my bezel. Knowing me, I would not have the patience to put it back together.

**off topic - what theme are you using on your phone. Like your wallpaper and how your icons are on the side. **

had to take my bld apart during the week because i dropped it and damaged the bezl. just replaced with a silver bezel. but black does look good, still on the lok out fo nice stitched brown leather back.

the only problem i had was putting back together again, took a little time to get the inards back in the bezel but used my credit card to prise it open a little bit then no problem.

Ohhh yeah! It was a challenge to get it to fit in the bezel for sure! But I gotta say that it fits back together tight and feels like new...only blacker. Hahaaa. Like I said not an easy job, but with patience it can be done.
