    Many options, if you're a lian li or collermaster case owner you can buy the plate type bezels or the stick on ones. Or you can get some silver spray paint and spary them.


    Tbh if you have a lian li or coolermaster case the bezels are simply amazing.

    I'm tempted, but spending more on a bezel for my floppy drive that costs twice what the drive did seems a tad odd to me

    The flap bezel for the cd drives are amazing.

    They are expensive, but they do look amazing.

    New AOpen drives come with both and you just attach the colour you want, either white or silver.

    NEC 2500A comes in silver. Although harder to get one than the normal beige.
    I have one here

    I've not heard great things about aopen drives - be wary, check the reviews of ebuyer QuickFind code: 58770 - thats the aopen dvd drive.

    The product code says 5232, but the description and reviews refer to 5224, I'd check what exactly the drive is before before ordering.

    I got the DVD?CDRW combo because of the black/silver/beige fronts. I've found it to be a good piece of kit and you get the full choice of colours without paying extra.
