ColorWare outs custom colors for the Apple iPhone 3GS

If you're anything at all like us, you were just a tad disappointed by the color "options" of Apple's newest foray into the world of mobile phones, the iPhone 3GS. After all, who wants to be limited to just black and white these days? Not us, that's for sure -- and ColorWare's just announced a fix for all that. Pricing for these customs jobs runs $150 for the back of the handset, $20 a piece for the bezel frame and button, and $15 the SIM holder. They'll also do up your earbuds for an additional $15. A small price to pay for beauty, no? Another shot of a different color combo after the break.

Looks the U2 edition of the ipod way back when. Not a fan.

So if you send in your phone to be painted, you have not service for 3 weeks?

Attention all! You can now buy an ugly iphone! So get it while it's hot, these sick, err I mean "slick" deals won't last for long!

You can pick whatever colors you want. Whether that be red, blue, green, gray (oo...that'd be kind of retro), or 1980s Windbreaker if you'd like (and you know some hipster out there would totally go for that). It doesn't have to be ugly just because Engadget makes their's outrageously multi-colored.

Altogether that costs MORE THAN THE DAMN PHONE!

[magallanes Posted Jun 23rd 2009 4:49PM]

$99?. think again.

[HektikLyfe Posted Jun 25th 2009 5:43PM]

$150 for the back of the handset
$20 a piece for the bezel frame
$20 and button
$15 the SIM holder
$15 earbuds

150+20+20+15+15=$220
iPhone=$99
iPhone 3Gs=$199

Yep. Looks like more to me.

What happens if your phone needs to be reaplaced? I'm guessing you would be S.O.L.??

So, how do you like this?

[beckhams777 Posted Jun 23rd 2009 4:34PM]

Why not just buy those cheap thin silicon cases for $5 if you want ur $phone in a different color?

[slyg4m3r Posted Jun 23rd 2009 4:36PM]

are they selling the "factory unlocked" models like they did for the 3G?

[moochy Posted Jun 24th 2009 8:31AM]

Engadget is spamming for this company. Please. Like they give a rat's ass about the color of the freaking iphone.

[GetYOID Posted Jun 23rd 2009 4:57PM]

I like the pink iPhones that are custom coloured at iPhonePink.com That is my favorite!!

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 23rd 2009 6:38PM]

That's a disgusting price tag for such a small amount of paint.

[Fireburst Posted Jun 23rd 2009 9:18PM]

might as well just go to ATT and buy another iphone for 200....
