I like the form factor of the phone so I do not want to cover it up with a case.

Are any of using a skin on just the back of the phone, and if so which one?
I was thinking of something that gave a little more grip would be nice.
 
Just got a skin from Skinit....definitely would not recommend it, basically just threw it away.
It does not line up well, you can feel the edges with your fingers and it just looked cheap
 
I ordered a skin from Phantomskinz from their Chromatics line. Waiting for it to show up in the mail. I think was originally made for the TMobile version of the phone, so I don't know that it's going to fit the Sprint version. The skins are well reviewed, but I guess I'll have to wait and find out about the fit.
 
i used skinomi for a while on my Pre and my wifes pixi. love it = and excellent customer service. i just put it on my nexus but this time i tried the carbon fiber back - but i like the regular clear skin better on the back.

Can you take a picture the back of your phone? I am curious to see how well it covers the Nexus 4G "butt."

Be sure to post a review and some pics.

this is the carbon fiber back- after using the clear techskin back on my Pre i find i prefer the clear better. the carbon doesn't have the 'grip' i feel the techskin does.

I got the zagg dry at the sprint store. It's good. The back has a nice grip to it.

The front is a lot better than the wet zagg. It feels as if there isn't any screen protector on it.
 
Got a skinomi and dang that was tough getting it to stick all around the edges on the back. I'm a little concerned about the edges collecting lint and dust, but it looks great so far. Looks and feels just like the zagg skin I put on my old Pixi (which is still in great shape, by the way).
 
i've used skinomi for a while - pre, pixi and now nexus - have you tried using a blow dryer on it to get those corners down?
