Since our first iPhone Decals article was such a success, many users mailing us asking for details from where to buy one for their iPhone, we decided to look into it. As stated before, the decals in the first article were custom made by Dutch using his professional vinyl plotter. And since a plotter like that costs a small fortune, it is not an effective solution for customizing your iPhone.
So we had to find a place that sells ready made iPhone decals online, in plenty of models and for a reasonable price. And the first place we found (and our personal favorite) is DecalGirl.com. This site is specialized in decals for electronics and has a colection of 238 models for the iPhone.
The main advantage of decals over cases is that they protect the iPhone from scratches without adding bulkiness. They are thin like a paper sheet, a thing that no iPhone case can do.
The difference between decals and custom paint is that a decal is easely removed or replaced with a new model, while a paint job is permanent. There is also a huge price difference, but still decals offer a larger variety of designs than paint jobs.
An interesting feature of DecalGirl.com is that they offer decals for the top and bottom of the front side. And that, combined with a similar wallpaper really completes the makeover. You can download the wallpaper from their site using a code printed on the packaging of the decal you just bought.
