    I was just wondering if anyone has gotten any laptop skins done from xoticpc. I want to buy the Asus N550JV-DB72T from there and figured I could get a sticker on it to cover up the cover/keyboard area, since I'm not a fan of the aluminum look. I can't really find any input that doesn't date back to 2008-2009, except for one case.

    Could the sticker they put on this particular model cover up the speakers? (That model has two large areas in the upper right and upper left corner that are speakers) Also, can anyone vouch for the quality of the image print? Thanks in advance.

    do you realise it's just a sticker? go buy it on ebay and just cut it to fit. it takes seconds and it's cheap.
    Can't understand what the problem is.

    Of course I know its just a sticker. I'm asking about the overall quality of it, and if anyone knows if it'd cover up the speakers on laptops.

    Considering this MSI GS70, but I'm not a fan of the ugly giant red logo on the lid. Would XoticPC's "Flat Black Stealth Graphic Wrap" cover that up? Does this sort of thing end up looking worse or cause any problems with over heating?
