For those interested, Aki Asahi will soon be offering replacement skin/leather for X100T models. I enjoy doing this, it's a fun project however it does void your warranty. This doesn't matter so much to me but to many it will.

I re-covered my old silver x100 in the pebble blue cowhide.
Really liked that. The texture was nice and grippy.
Blue was understated while still looking luxurious.

These x100 cameras are truly classics. I'm using a black one now and feel no need to dress it up.

Hi Dante.
On my original it was very easy.
Isopropyl alcohol and a few Qtips.
Nothing like cleaning old cracked vulcanite off an M. I had a rough go with that project once :(

I wish my x100T were silver so I could do this. Love it!
Harder to find a nice match to a black camera. Might go with the 4008 which is very m3-Esque or the black lizard if I want to be fancy.
