I use DecalGirl's Black Carbon Fiber. It gives a nice contrast to the display.

So I just got a K2 and was thinking of getting a decalgirl skin, but how many of you spring for that Matte/Satin finish over the default gloss? Is it really worth that extra bit of money I could use buying books, I'm sure it's all in the users eye, but it's still worth wondering if anybody feels it's worth it and why?

I've had 2 skins and do not feel that they are glossy enough to require a further matte finish. I'm getting ready to buy 2 more and won't spring for the difference. hope this helps answer the question!

I've just ordered a custom skin from SkinIt - plain black on the front with a picture of my hubby taken on a black background on the back. Just have to see how it turns out.

Yeah I was leaning just go with the gloss too...I think I'll cut up an old xbox skin from them just to look at it under a lamp. But, I'm not thinking it's going to be a problem.

I designed my own skin for my K2 and had it custom made by Decal Girl. I prefer the Matte finish.

Did you order the original glossy or the new matte? I haven't decided yet, but I ordered the Carbon in Glossy for my Wii so that should help me decide.
