I bought the "Demonic Mitosis" Full system skin from DecalGirl.com for $25 and it's great. Very high quality and feels very durable.

for me the draw is being able to design your own (face and skin) so I'm going with 360covers and their less obnoxious website.

Can I just get a faceplate that matches the HDD? That's all I'm askin'. Nothing fancy, just something that matches the rest of my components in my entertainment center.

I've used DecalGirl.com skins on other stuff in the past (Ipods, Xbox 1st gen, etc) and was always very impressed. Haven't made the leap to a 360 skin yet, tho.

I just made my own skin with an Aliens vs Predator window sticker and some double-sided sheet tape.

However, I'll probably have to design my own faceplate skin to match.

My GC Skin is due in this Thursday for my 360. I had one on my Xbox as well though, so I know about the quality (Second to none that I've seen). The material is vinyl based, so it is glossy and sweaty palms won't affect it. However you can see by the cut of the 360 controller sticker that the palm area won't be covered (actualy their cut so you can add the 360 gel pads which I own and HIGHLY reccomend).

I bought 3 skins for my 360 with matching controller skins ..... They are a pain in the butt to apply. NOTHING is cut properly, so no matter what you will have minor "bubbles". I haven't actually applied my console skin because putting on the controller one took about an hour to get _close_ to being on all the way. I attempted to put on one of the face plate ones and it looked like it was cut way off and wouldn't fit right. I'll try it again when I get a chance. Other than the cutouts (which I know can't be perfect, and may be fine for other people) they seem to be an excellent product, and certainly look amazing.

Facetags all the way Baby!

With the image-thing not up they still have hundreds more designs than the other guys.

The link below is the one I use. Great quality and it never bubbled. Plus, they even have a little comic they include with each order!

I never ordered anything for my Xbox b/c most of the designs out there were all the same crap. Saw facetags.com on the blog and checked them out. Just ordered mine, (Called Smoke Freed - way cool comic art skin) and will report back after I get it. People - I would check them out just because of the selection, it was hard to pick one out of them all, they have hundreds.
