Guest RedSlug Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 About a week ago, part of it fell of leaving me with "DEL" Today the rest decided to fall off. :) I quite like the matt black "Stealth" look. I wish the camera wasn't so silver now :)

LOL Mine must gave fallen off and I didn't even notice!!! Edited October 12, 2010 by RedSlug
Guest moneytoo Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 First the silver circle, then L so now I'm with just DEL (Streak Red BTW).
Guest kupo Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 Holy s***, I didn't even know what could happen. I've got a massive Gmail sticker on my Dell logo, so I imagine all the silverness is going to come off when the sticker gets too tatty :)
Guest tellisnz Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 Haha, exactly same order as you guys, first the ring fell off, then an L, and literally an hour ago the DEL went as well... I don't mind it. I figure it's shitty glue + semi hard to open case = no more DELL logo...
Guest gingernator Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 Add me to the "DEL" crew as well :)
Guest Wee Thomas Posted October 13, 2010 Report Posted October 13, 2010 Add me to the "DEL" crew as well :) +1
Guest popetodd Posted October 13, 2010 Report Posted October 13, 2010 Well, it just so happens that I have a spare back in absolutely mint condition sitting on my shelf doing nothing. Hmm, I think £100 might take it... :)
Guest tomqman Posted October 13, 2010 Report Posted October 13, 2010 lost 1/2 a circle, the the L. now the rest of the circle. all i have left is del
Guest zoidster Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 My was intact , but on discovering it was stickers , I have just peeled it off ! Looks much better IMO
Guest kwaaq Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 Lost circle weeks ago. Noticed the L was misaligned so I pulled the rest off today.
Guest RedSlug Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 Well, it just so happens that I have a spare back in absolutely mint condition sitting on my shelf doing nothing. Hmm, I think £100 might take it... :) LOL. I'll upgrade your back cover to the stealthy "black" look for £50

Hmm, I think £100 might take it... :) I also have a spare. This guy's ripping you off at £100, you can have mine for £75... :) edit: Duh. Done it again. Added reply before seeing post above. Why isn't there a delete option?! Edited October 14, 2010 by jannism
Guest popetodd Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 LOL. I'll upgrade your back cover to the stealthy "black" look for £50 BWAAAAAH! How much for flashing LED's?
Guest rebski Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 I noticed this thread a couple of days ago and paid it no heed. Clearly it jinxed me. Now the top arm of the E has just come off. Damn! My was intact , but on discovering it was stickers , I have just peeled it off ! Looks much better IMO Actually that is good to hear. I would probably prefer that look too. Maybe I should just peel it off now and be done with it.
Guest clickspace Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 My L fell off a long time ago. I managed to witness the demise of the ring, it looks as though the heat from my pocket superheated the glue and it came off. Can anyone make silver Ctrl + Alt stickers?
Guest Alkiera Posted October 15, 2010 Report Posted October 15, 2010 Can anyone make silver Ctrl + Alt stickers? LOL! That'd be hilarious.
Guest Carmageddon Posted October 16, 2010 Report Posted October 16, 2010 Anyone tried to find a suitable way to reattach these silver letters? I dont know about you, but I like the reflective silvery letters hehe. I dont think Superglue is good choice here. any other ideas? Thing is, i use Clingo car mount which already took the last L in the first use :) I suspect the rest will be torn off today when I use GPS again :)
Guest rebski Posted October 16, 2010 Report Posted October 16, 2010 After the top arm of the E broke, I spotted that the circle was barely hanging on so I removed the whole thing. There is a fair amount of glue in the indents which came off with a glue removing solvent (white spirit in my case). My initial disappointment that the as-new look was peeling has been replaced with much satisfaction at the all black stealth look. In my opinion this is what it should have been in the first place. Thinking about it, stuck on baco foil as a cosmetic finish is just a bit naff don’t you think?
