    i dont like how it covers the XPS logo. i guess that could be cut out, but whatever. too much work. also, the mouse pad cover is tacky in my opinion. thats optional too though.

    I only want a skin for the top lid.

    Is it possible to then remove a skin without damaging the original lid?
    Thanks

    Not really, unless you keep your lid closed while leaving the display on.

    Wow ... great customer service ;) . I checked his feedback ratings, it's not all that great. Might be better off just gettin one off of www.skinit.com because u can choose theirs or make your own custom one.
