Step-by-Step Guide To Making Your Own Nokia E50 Metal Black
Jaro 12. February 2007 :: e50, metal black, nokia
Last week we looked at the photos of a home made Metal Black E50. This time I have a great guide with photos for you. A huge thanks goes to Doug who documented the whole process. I know that some of you will find it very helpful. So without further comments let’s make our own Metal Black E50:
You probably noticed that the little bottom part is missing. Doug had to use the silver one from his original E50. We are hunting for the new part and when we will let you know once we find it. For now you can purchase the following parts:
- metal black front cover EUR 23,99
- battery cover EUR 19,99
- black keypad EUR 15,95

Make your own Nokia E50 Metal Black

It’s not easy to get a Metal Black E50. Lots of people write in and ask where to buy one. Unfortunately there are only a few on-line stores which offer it, most of them located in Europe. It looks like the metal black is not meant for the U.S. market at all.
If you can’t live without the metal black beauty there is a relatively simple way to make one. You’ll need one Nokia E50, front and back cover, a keypad and a tiny bit of patience. Doug has sent me a few photos of his custom made Nokia E50 Metal Black. It’s a work in progress, he is waiting for a new black keypad to arrive but so far it looks good. Check it out:
The only missing part (except of the keypad which is on its way) is the bottom silver piece. It doesn’t come with the cover so you’ll have to use the old one. If anyone knows where to get the black bottom please let us know.
Where to get the parts?
You can buy these parts on the internet. Here are a few useful links (thanks Doug):
- metal black front cover EUR 23,99
- battery cover EUR 19,99
- black keypad EUR 15,95
