Did you really wash the S4 or have I always seen it on bad hair days?

Personally isn't my cup of tea, but if it does the job then good times.

Nice "design" feature having an air scoop to stop the screen misting up when your bent over heavy breathing at high speed

Suggest you do'nt use super glue as it has a tendancy to whiten the plastic. The best answer is to drill a small hole (3mm) where the "crack" has reached and then fill the hole with an appropriate coloured silicone sealer/filler.

Had the same screen on the Street Triple, really good design and deflects wind really well for the size of it
