Damaged screen protecter

I had a bottle cap in the same pocket as my touch pro which gouged the hell out of the plastic covering the LCD. It looks like this plastic is just a sticker and can easily be replaced.

Has anyone found a source for replacements?

Thanks,

I am planning on using boxwave's protector when I get tired of the stock one. I have used them on previous phones and really like them. You could also get some from radioshack or a sprint store, I imagine.

I'm using invisishield from Zagg. Very happy with it. You can pick one up at Best Buy or purchase direct for half the cost.

I must not have explained the issue well enough. I didn't damage those really thin screen protectors. I damaged the stock lcd protector that came with the phone, the one that says Verizon or sprint on it. I can pry it off and replace it if I had another one.

You mean the touch-screen itself?

If you scratched the screen itself, you'll need something like this. That one is for the Diamond - which looks like it may not be compatible. Maybe you can find one on Ebay for the TP.

Yeah, you damaged the screen, not the screen protector. If it were me, I'd take it to the sprint repair store and see what they say.

P.S. $16?? I didn't know digitizers were so cheap!
