So, on my new RBION, the plain flat black speaker cover bugs me. I'm thinking of buying a spare and painting it a color that flows better with the rest of the game. Another idea would be to print off some vintage ripleys images from the Web and apply them to the panel sort of like the art on the side of the cabinet, then clear the whole thing. Or even print off one large Ripleys logo, and "wrap" the panel. Suggestions? Comments? Better ideas?

I would recommend a ColorDMD. I like the way they stand out with a black surround and you'll get your color. A speaker light kit will also add color. I usually add LED strips to the speakers and connect them to flashers.

I think your bamboo idea sounded good. Throw some palm trees on the edges... near the speakers. Maybe use some warm green/yellow LED speaker lights.
