I made a new bumper case

[heath patrick]

Well sort-of!

I picked up the Verizon bumper and just didn't like it too much. It fit tight but was too loose for me around the edges on the long sides(it would pull away from the phone too easy). SO... I had a Supcase UB Pro that I was not using and got to thinking(dangerous!). Anyway the UB Pro has a front plastic piece that snaps on the phone from the front then the rubbery back wraps around the front and makes the case. I cut out the back and super glued the rubber to the plastic and now have a much better bumper case with a Holster(must have for me) that allows MOTO mods to be used and swapped without removing the bumper.

The cut edges are not the greatest but I think it will serve it purpose well.

Well, I bought that Verizon bumper case and I seriously cannot get it on.... I feel like I'm going to damage the phone. With the corners being thicker how on earth did you get it on? Feels like there's no give

It's more like you put the phone in the case than the case on the phone if that makes sense, back side first.

I will try again tomorrow, my nerves are fried....why haven't others case makers thought of just making a bumper? I understand they can't create a case for ech mod added on, even moto...why not an oem bumper?

with the case in front of the phone, set the base of the phone into the bottom of the case. Snap one top corner on, then run your thumbs along the side & top toward the last corner until it snaps on. It's a tight fit, but not super hard with the right approach.
