n80 black facia and keypad
I did and it seems okay to be honest. Bear in mind though if you're going to fit them to a silver phone you still won't get the full black look as the top of the slider will still be silver.
Not so keen on the replacement black keypad as the typeface is slightly different from the genuine Nokia part.

The ones on eBay for about �6 are OK, but be VERY CREAFUL using the tool that is provided to remove the screws holding the front cover in place. The one I received did not fit the screw head perfectly and rubbed all the black paint off the screws, and also partly filed the head off the screw - making it extremely difficult to remove and replace the 2 screws in future.
Also beware that removing the screws (and the black paint on them) will almost certainly invalidate your Nokia warranty - so think carefully before you do this.
