Make your iPhone look like a 1970s wet suit

iPhone owners looking to personalize their handset can now send off their precious device to Colorware, the folks who will paint just about every electronic device under the sun. $150 gets you a new paint job, which includes two color choices for the back of the phone. For a little extra, you can also customize the shiny metal and Home button on the front of the phone, the Apple logo on the back, and the earbuds and dock.

Similar to Colorware's other offerings, you can also buy a prepainted iPhone in both the 4GB and 8GB capacities. One thing we're not digging is the giant Colorware logo that gets slapped on the back of the phone. You'd think shelling out $150 and voiding your warranty would keep it ad-free.
