Good joke Betrugger. On a serious note he can consider replacing the body panels. But Original panels are hard to find and Chinese ones don't last long.

First of all tell us which phone you wish to paint.

Don't use nailpaint or other such chemicals they may cause problems to the device.

Instead of painting, try getting a cheap china body cover. The best thing you could do is buy a new phone if it's possible.

ok.. instead of re-paint your mobile phone body, a series option is there it will possible with more more sensible mood..
but you should have a high resolution digital camera..
do the following;

> separate the mobile body and its internal parts.
> take some close up shots with your digital camera on external visible part of your mobile phone by side by side.
> then transfer the pictures to USB drive/CD
> then go to Sticker-Maker shop and make a sticker for your pictures of your favorite color.
> The sticker-maker machine (looks like a dot matrix printer) draw the pictures in a colored sticker paper based on your pictures.
> the shop-technician give you the sticker that will reflect your outlines of mobile phone
> Finally stick it side by side.

a 18 point capital letter cost 5/-

Sorry, I missed that line.

So I feel you should cover it with mobile stickers instead of trying to paint it. Getting a moto cover is very difficult.

Rs.250 is too much, try bargaining.
The headphones which your shopkeeper is selling are not genuine for sure. Bargain here too.

It will be too costly if you try to repain. Instead, why don't you try for a new case?
