    Do you have $$ to burn? Or are you just bored? Why buy parts if there's not a specific need? :confused: Doesn't sound like you need anything, so save your pennies instead. Am I missing something?

    SkinIt covers are always snazzy and let you personalize it.

    You could also get a really sweet mouse like one of the Razer or Logitech G-series.

    I don't need a TV, a computer, a couch, a 2009 Camaro (Well when I buy one in 2009), its just that I WANT them. I want something cool and new.

    are you a DIY? i skinned my notebook my self, with vinyl.
    check it out in this other thread
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=119899

    but i am going to re-do it with more realistic carbon fiber (just bored) i got them at DecalFX.com. also it goes good around the edges and curves, just remember to use some liquid first to get all the air bubble out or else you will mess up like i did on the lid, but other than that everything else went great.

    What a terrible comparison, nothing like what the OP was asking. Here, let me help you out:

    "I just bought a 2009 Camaro, what are some cool aftermarket accessories can I buy for it?".

    And my answer remains the same.
