Do you mean covering all the black areas, (like around the earpiece and home button) with white?
Because I think covering the screen itself with white would make the screen un-usable...

Yeah only on the black so its all white but not the screen like you said that would be un usable.

I've never seen them make it, but with a white iPhone, that would be pretty sweet. You could put cut vinyl on there. Perhaps a full screen protector, then white cut vinyl on top of that.
i have a white iPhone but I have a black Case-Mate, so it looks black. If I didn't have a case, I'd definitly try this to make it all white. That would be cool!

True-Dat!
Do you have a plotter?
I have a plotter and cut vinyl graphics and decals for clients. (sign business)
I might make one for my phone...
Cool, you're in Clear Lake, I'm in NW Houston.

The only problem I see with vinyl is proper alignment. Unless it was applied to the static-cling screen-protector before-hand and applied as one unit...hmm....

No I have none of that you sound like the man for the job. Haha. I would prob put aclear screen protector on first then make it in 3 parts top bottom and then the sides. But idk you have done the sticker/ graphics alot more than I have done it me being 0 times. If you figure it out let me know I would love get one from you. I just wonder about the glue on the sticker when you try to take it off.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend applying vinyl directly to the glass, it can be difficult to remove, and when it does come off, it leaves glue behind that has to be removed with solvents or powerful citrus-based adhesive removers.
I would most likely scan the front of the phone, or perhaps the screen protector, then cut and apply to the screen protector and then apply the screen protector to the phone so that the vinyl isn't directly applied to the glass. I could try and whip something out tomorrow...

Yeah do that let me know. Thanks

This is what I have so far. It would be much better to scan the clear screen cover and apply it to that. I haven't applied it to my phone because I don't want to apply it directly to the glass. I don't have any screen protectors either. Maybe I'll order a 3-pack or something. Looks promising so far...
