Oh really? I went to six different sprint stores that i drive by everyday and i came away with 5 free extra covers for my TP. Check out my colors: Black, Navy Blue, Vista Green, Orange, Original (to compare)

... wondering why my post saying basically the same thing was deleted ...

Just dyed mine in black and came out great...threw away the small pot after using it for the process. It's an old pot I had for a year now. Don't think i'll do another color though..too messy

OMFG Mine turned out hot pink!

LOL Just kidding. It turned out an strange off brown color I just bought red blue and something else threw them all in the pot and the result is unusual will post pics soon. My wife came in the kitchen and was like what are you cooking and i said "the back cover to my phone" and she said "hmmm cant waite to taste it" LOL

Success100 I got that Gunmetal for ya. Some might notice that the vista green is gone. Thats bcuz i didnt really like the color and wanted to lighten it up to a regular green. I bought a box of the color remover, but be warned, it takes about an hour and a half to remove the color. AND it doesnt come off completely. Its very light and u can dye over it easily. Ill post the new green later.I bet most people havent noticed that i changed the blue by using the color remover and making it a lighter true blue as well. I just turn the heat on low and let it work while I watch the game or something. I stir it about every 15 minutes. Im sure the darkness of the original color affects the time as well. U know a shorter time for a lighter color. Anyway, I did Yellow and Gunmetal Gray. Check it out: Yellow, Orange, True Blue, Gunmetal Gray, Black, and Bright Green soon to come!
