So I posted about a year ago about find'n a good i850 housing. Well that's phone's gone now (long story short, no signal + short temper + sidewalk = phone in 9 pieces) and I managed to get a hold of an i860. Personally, I love the phone, and it'll be awesome until the i930 comes to me, but it's kinda beat up look'n. I've seen a lot of AM housing that look like their all made by the same manufacturer (they all say "Limited Edition Color" on the front of them) and look like they are made from the same cheap plastic that the housing I put on my i850 were made out of. I was just wandering if anyone knew where to get a good quality full housing as apposed to just getting a new OEM housing. Just as I mentioned in my post about the i850 housing, does anyone know if full metal housings even exist for any Nextel phone? Some one should start making them, they could make a lot of money off of a virtually indestructible metal housing, lol. Thanx in advance my fellow nOObers!

yes they do exist but since the phone is old they might be hard to find try ebay or google
