The iPhone 3G is currently only available with white or black cases but ColorWare, Inc is striving to change that. While you still can only get the two colors from Apple, ColorWare can take your iPhone and custom color the case.

All you have to do is send in your iPhone 3G and they will take it apart, custom coat the case, put it back together and ship it back to you. Or, they will start with a brand new iPhone purchased from a reseller. The coloring process costs $150 for just the back or $230 for all parts that can be colored. Yeah, I know that's a little steep, but you can choose from solid and metallic colors. All the colors contain a high-gloss finish that is scratch-resistant, adding an extra layer to your iPhone.

What's really cool is you can have all areas of the iPhone colored including the back, frame, button and SIM card tray. You can even get the dock and earbuds dyed. The color system is described as a "hybrid of manufacturing and automotive coating materials."
