I'm really hoping mine ends up looking like my mockups. The white/matte is incoming and I will probably use the lucky labs curly maple back texture.

That my friend is stupendous. i shall jack your idea! May gates be proud.
 
I ordered a Matte Black last night to go with my white 4s. Hopefully this is the end of my search for the "perfect" case. Anyone else feel like they have constantly been looking for "the one" since the i4 came out??

how do u get those style backplates?
 
Ordered mine on the 14th and I received the shipping notice at midnight last night. Still hasn't shown up on the USPS website but they're very slow in updating package status.

They're not plates, just textures from The Lucky Labs. I have no idea if it will come out like this or not, those pics are mockups I made using the graphic from Graft Concepts and a graphic from Lucky Labs. I hope it comes out right and see no reason why it should not.
 
I just checked my order status and it was shipped Friday night from about 20 miles from my house. Should get it tomorrow. I didn't realize these guys were so close to me.
 
Gorgeous combo but I have a couple questions. The metal lever looks blue. Is that an optical illusion or how did you make it that way? Second question regarding the Trunket: the camera cutout is the same as the ones causing problems with everyone's flash (as opposed to speck's large pill shape). Do you have washed out pictures with Trunket back in place?

No it's only a reflection. The ones I have are from way back so I'm not sure if the ones today have a larger cutout. Yes, the more vibrant colored ones will affect images with flash.

Did you apply the Trunket skin to the backplate that came with the Leverage in that image? That lines up so seamlessly. If so, did you have to cut?

No, that wouldn't make sense. It just so happens to fit perfectly :) It's snug and flush with the bumper.
 
@Gadgetmac: Do you think white color will get dirty faster than the black one? I just purchased the white case with matte latch for my white iphone because I hate the finger prints

I ordered the exact same thing for my white 4s after looking at literally hundreds of cases. I couldn't justify going completely caseless so I just said screw it if I have to have a case go big or go home. Cant wait!:D
 
of course...100% white is gonna get dirty faster than the black.

After having the SGP Linear Crystal Case (Black) and Incase Snap Case (with Kickstand), I have decided to get the Graft Concepts Leverage (Black/Matte). I found the SGP to be extremely slippery in the hands and the watermarking from the clear case was also off putting. I actually do like the incase, but the kickstand just doesn't sit well with me aesthetically. I hope this case is the one to end my delusion of the "perfect case". I have also ordered a Power Support Crystal film, so I have full protection. I think the fact that this comes with a back plate, sealed the deal for me. When I originally saw the case, I thought it was a glorified bumper, but after seeing the reviews and the pictures from people in this thread, I was sold. Thanks MacRumors!

I hope this is it! I was going to go with a white iPhone but changed at the last minute to black. Either way, it's going to to look extremely slick (black case / matte / black iPhone + I ordered a Trunket to put on the back and Power Support Crystal to protect the front)... can't wait to receive...
 
Thanks for the reposes guys. I will be more careful to maintain this lovely case. Do you have any suggestion for holster that fit the phone with case? I always carry a holster with me when I go outside.
