The folks at ColorWare have been making gadgets look prettier for some time, but in the case of the iPhone 4 they might be taking it a step further: They’re trying to confirm it, but their process might include death-grip-proofing.

The whole beautification process is simple: You pick out a color scheme, give ColorWare $250, send them your iPhone 4, and wait for a while. They return your iPhone 4 with a nice paint job and possibly train it how to resist the signal-killing death grip.
Testing is still being done on how well the ColorWare process is in fighting reception issues and we’ll update as soon as we know more. [ColorWare]
