ColorWare has started offering a send-in iPhone 4 custom coloring service. The service allows customers to choose from a variety of solid, metallic, or pearlescent colors, some of which are available with a soft touch finish, for application on the phone’s back, frame, Home button, micro SIM slot and earbuds. Each component can be painted a separate color, although each component beyond the frame costs extra. ColorWare’s custom coloring service for the iPhone 4 is available now with an estimated three week turn around time, and starts at $260.

You are obviously not the demographic that ColorWare aims to serve (neither am I, for the record). They target elite companies that want to brand their tech. They also target the very wealthy. And it’s safe to assume that if you can afford $250 for a shot of color on your phone, you can probably afford to have multiple phones around to use for the 3 weeks it takes to do the job.
