Shape is tricky to hack, but a can of spray-paint goes a long way towards the 
color side. I've done several black ones -- the textured "barbeque" paint 
works well for this -- and you can get cool textured trendy color mixes from 
your local hardware place... Krylon or somebody had some pastels, very 
Southwestern patterns, you can spray on.

To do it right ya gotta take all the faceplates out (or off, CD's and floppies 
for instance, not losing little springs and screws!) and do it all a piece at 
a time, but a weekend day with a lot of breaks would do it.
