Help Colour change?

[Foxspeed]

Hi all,
Just about to send my original Samsung Galaxy Nexus into retirement and buy a second hand Nexus 5X for a fairly good price for it's details. What I would like to know is, can I change the colour of the phone? I mean, that the one I am about to purchase is Ice Blue but would have preferred the carbon effect one.
Thanks.

Put a case on it.

From the pictures online it looks like the color is simply the back panel which can be replaced without too much problem.

At about a minute in they show the back cover coming off.

The part costs ~$20.

Thanks for the replies. I couldn't understand why the prices were so different due to the various colours! If it's no problem changing the cover, I suppose I could buy one and just buy the coloured cover of my choice.

Probably supply and demand. .. If they are stuck with a large pile of less popular colours they have to get rid of them somehow.
