adhesive transfer tape. use butanone to remove the old adhesive. If pregnant, mod is not recommended, as inhaling butanone causes birth defects. But it's the only thing that will get rid of 100%(not 90%, or "enough", or 99%) of the old adhesive.

The adhesive is redundant with the stock bezel, since there are clips. Apple is silly.

That looks fantastic. Would you mind telling how it was done? Or was it as simple as removing the white bezel and placing the glass one over it?

Did you even remove the white bezel? It kind of looks like the glass is sitting on top of the current screen and bezel, although wouldn't that make it difficult to close the lid? Also how does the iSight work with the new glass?

Looks incredible. Have there been any more updates? And could you please post more pics w/ more angles, and open/closed? Thanks

Yeah, post some more pics please! I'm really curious about this. I sooo want my white MB to look like that, I'm just way too afraid to mod it like that

I wish there were a way to make the bezel black without having to remove it. Like, maybe some really thin piece of plastic to go over the entire screen, thin enough to not affect the closing of the macbook, dark black on the bezel area, but clear over the screen. I love the look of the white MacBooks but find the white bezel to be distracting. IMHO it should make what's on the screen pop out at you and create some contrast, and all that white right next to the screen just doesn't do that.
