I know this is a First World problem… but damn Apple for not giving us a black Pro Max option this year. I will be coming from the black 14PM and one thing I love about that phone is the screen just melts into the sides… the bezels and black sides of the phone just merge nicely into one another. So, with that said, my plan is to probably get the silver 17PM and wrap it up in a black skin that will give me that same look of the black 14PM. Does anyone know if the Dbrand skins will come up far enough on the sides to hide the color?
 
I have used their previous wraps before on other iPhone models and am pretty sure their wraps go over the sides of the phone but it might not go all the way right up to the edges where the screen and sides meet. Maybe a hot air blower might be able to stretch the wrap a little bit more to cover it but that is going to need a lot of patience and skills.
 
Just got mine the package that I chose came with a full wrap sides and back, a skin just for the back portion and a accent skin that covers the camera bump and the ceramic portion on the back. I have only installed the accent ones currently but the full coverage one looks promising.
 
I’m going to make a dedicated post about my experience with the full coverage shortly - but yes it does cover the edges. I’ve got the Matte Black on a Deep Blue 17PM. If you install it correctly and soften the edges and lightly stretch them over there is only the ultra faintest line of blue from the front and only noticeable if you are really looking for it. The only Blue left is around the camera rings and obviously all the buttons.
