You could just save some cash and send the laptop to http://www.colorwarepc.com

They do really professional custom color jobs on devices =]

No I mean saving cash, like keeping money aside to actually get a color job done. Not saving cash in getting it done, I am aware it's expensive =]

Dude, you do know that was a joke? right?, lol, but hey I am sure you could do it. Personally i would be too scared to try, but maybe someone braver than me will give it a shot and post pictures. Would love to see a few macbook in different colors, the possibilities are endless with spray paint.

I knew a guy once who ran one of those custom license plate airbrush booths in a flea market. He actually custom airbrushed a few computer cases. They looked great!
