Just wanted to share my experiance i had with specialfxskins.co.uk.
I ordered 2 skins from this guy ( one chrome and one chrome blue). They arived a couple of days after i placed my order and the quality was very good. I started to apply the blue skin but realised after i had already fitted the top skin that the right hand controler port skin was missing( damm rushing i should have checked before i fitted it). So i had to remove the skin and fit the chrome one instead. my customer was very happy with the chrome skin but this left me with a dilema. so i contacted Chris (the guy from sfx) and he apolgised about the missing skin part and offered me a whole new skin. Also the prces of the skins have just been reduced to £5 and they also do ps2 skins. All i can say is top bloke and top service, if only all vendors were as profesional as this comany.
I just thought i would share this info so others can benifit from his service.

That's great! Everyone makes mistakes. It's what the companies do AFTER they make a mistake that lets you know what kind of people you're dealing with!
Just as an update, customPS2 FINALLY got me my clear cover! As you may recall, they shipped it in very poor packing and it was cracked! It took several unanswered emails, several long-distance phones, and several weeks of waiting, but they eventually delivered the goods. _________________ The World's Most Awesome Xbox 360 Room

Did your clear case come with a bottom?? The one's that I purchased from California did not! I got to blues and a crystal clear one...no bottoms. I used them on a black bottom, and to be honest you cant tell, but I was just curious as I thought for $26.00 I was getting a bargain, but now I am really wondering.
Also, there is this one part that it comes with that I have no friggin clue what it goes to. It's about five inches ling and has a hole in the middle. A small circle/cover type of thing fits right in it. I am clueless as to what the hell this piece is for.. It also came with the on/off/eject part, and the DVD Bezel/Cover. It came with the piece and the top case as well. It's just this extra two piece hickymabob is baffling me.
Here is a quick pic of a yellow one

No bottom... just front panel & lid... those seemingly extra parts are for use with the Thomson DVD drive... apparently you remove the metal cover and mount that thing over the disc spindle... that way you'll be able to see all the dust that now enters your DVD drive because you removed the metal cover. _________________ The World's Most Awesome Xbox 360 Room

His? Not sure which site you are referring to... I bought my cases from Ebay..from a guy in California. Maybe you are referring to customxbox.net cuz that's where I took the pic from??
Thanks for the info boxter... I had no idea what that piece was for!! HA.

Nor did I! Nice that it came with NO instructions, huh? I saw a photo somewhere that showed someone's mod with that case and the dohickey (the technical jargon for that part) installed. _________________ The World's Most Awesome Xbox 360 Room
