    Hey, I recently bought myself Asus Zenbook UX303UB, without touchscreen and QHD display, because I don't see myself using toucscreen + Windows scaling sucks.

    But since I chose the matte HD screen, the bezel around the laptop is grey. I was wondering if it is possible to change with the same laptop model screen bezel, but black. Like the touchscreen models come.
    It's purely esthetic, but I kinda like the MacBook like look, with black screen bezel.

    I kinda know that it should be possible, but a) where do I get this bezel, it's quite a new laptop & b) how hard would the swap be & will it woid my warranty?

    It it deems to be too problematic or difficult opening up and messing with a week old laptop, then I'm concidering just vinyl wrapping the screen. It wouldn't be as pretty, but who knows. Would still prefer changing the actual bezel.

    Thanks in advance ;)
