Default removing "Cingular" brand on cover

hey guys.

im new to the board.

just quick question:

is there a way to remove the "Cingular" printed on the front face plate?

i know its a little thing but it bothers me (im pretty sure others are with me on this). i've seen the site with tape and sugar, but that doesnt work on plastic.

anyone?

thanks in advance.

Tape covers that pretty nice, haha, Just kidding.

I know Acetone will pretty much remove anything, but im not sure if it will work to take off the logo. Its used in nail polish remover, but hey if you wanna give it a shot, go ahead.

I think it will melt the plastic or make it rough if you use acetone. Why would you want to remove the logo? Who cares what it says. Is your service not thru the same provider of the phone?

well i just really like the simplistic look of the unbranded ones.

i got an unlocked cingular one and im under t-mobile.

if i had the OEM front faceplate of the unbranded ones straight
from Palm i would be okay. haha.

You could try this if your sick of looking at cingular.
