The one I ordered from Vapor Skinz comes in 4 pieces, two cover the glass sides and two covers the metal perimeter.
Just got my limited edition yesterday and already have an inch long scratch on the top by the 510. I have no idea how it got it as I have had it in 1 spot. It might have come like that, but I don't want to have to send it back and wait for a new one. Just pisses me off lol.

I've made my own wraps out of fabric. I like the feel and they last longer than you might think. I made a pattern, cut the fabric and stuck it on the mod using double-sided carpet tape. It might take a couple of tries to get the fit just right, but I had lots of fun!

I know they do. I just can't justify spending $20 on it, when I can buy an entire sheet for $6.50. Plus, I could buy 3 different sheets for the price of 1 J-Wrap, which would allow me to change out often if I get bored with it. But I can never come up with a final answer on what kind of wrap I want. If only the SW was out for a while, so I can see pictures of what they looks like in different wraps.

Somehow I think the cost of CAD programming and Cutter printing has a bit to do with expense. Then there is the actual labor involved in setup/etc.

I can do many things cheaper. The real question is can it be done Cheaper and as good or better or is one willing to accept less for less?
