What's the point of spending all this money on a good camera and then worry about cosmetic damage? I will admit that I have other cameras than the M8, and depending on the situation, I take the Fuji X100, or the M8, or the Pentax K5. The choice is certainly never driven by the relative cost of those outfits, rather by the type of shooting I expect to do. And I am an amateur.
