Thank you for the photo.

Fixing an iPhone Case:

Take it to an AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider)

1. Go Here: Find Locations - Apple Authorized Reseller
2. Click: Service & Support
3. Enter: your location information
4. See: if there is an AASP nearby
5. Contact: an AASP that shows up, and find out more about the services that they offer to fix the device

To me, it appears to be purely cosmetic, and covered by the case anyway. Is anything broken or damaged on the phone? If not, you may want to consider just keeping it for now.

If it is purely cosmetic (as far as you know) and you want it fixed, you can inquire at a Genius Bar or Apple Store, or contact Apple support to ask about pricing.

I really couldn't say- I've never heard of Apple even offering a repair service for cosmetic damage. The only way to find out would be to ask at a Genius Bar or Apple Store, or contact Apple support.

If you don't have Apple Care, it's going to cost you hundreds of dollars to replace the phone, even assuming Apple makes an exception to their policy of not replacing for cosmetic damage. If you do have Apple Care, you'd be using one of your lower cost repair incidents for what? Something that's covered by the case? That's one less lower-cost replacement available if you have real problems.

Apple doesn't repair phones and send them back to you. They replace the phone with a replacement unit (which may be new or may be refurbished) and then send your back to be repaired and refurbished for the next person.

I would strongly recommend against going to a third-party repair service for something like this. If there is no functional damage to your phone, having it repaired by someone who is not authorized might actually cause functional damage which then would not be covered under any kind of warranty or replacement by Apple.

As Bubba suggested, put the case back on and don't worry about it.
