How it is:
Currently when ordering an Alienware laptop you have two options, one being Cosmic Black and the other being Nebula Red. Also these options are only available for laptops, there is no option like this for desktops.
How it Should Be:
I'm sure that many people and not just me would love to see more customization options for their alienware without using a 3rd party source. By adding more color options you add truly full customization to the alienware line up. I know for a fact that there are people out there that would love to have the colors of their laptop or desktop match their AlienFX settings. Now many people have thought of colors that would look good on laptops or desktops so here's a list of some of them!

1. Lunar Silver
2. Solar Orange
3. Nova Blue
4. Gamma Purple
5. Alien Green (Martian Green?)
6. Celestial Yellow
I was speaking directly with an alienware employee and he told me that he loved the idea and i should put it here, so lets see what happens :)
Status update: As stated in the comment from Francisco_S this idea is now Under Review. Please be patient as we will be limited in what we can share during this process.

I thought more about this and decided it'd be more compelling if we had mockups and examples. So I got right to work. Here's what I have so far (they look awesome, I'm sure you'll think):With a M14x:
Twilight Blue - a vivid, deep, darker blue, in soft-touch
Cobalt Dust - my personal favorite - a more demure grayish blue, that gives way to a vibrant powdery-shine in light
And with a M17x I have;
Martian Green - a vivid, deep metallic green - this will be familiar to owners of older Alienware desktops
And on the ever flamboyant M18x:
Solar Gold - an attention grabbing, powerful gold/deep-yellow exterior dusted with fine, embedded metal particles that come to life in bright light - perfect for flaunting your purchase

I approve of this, but I'd also like more finishing options - like a shiny, matte powder blue, maybe? I really like powder finishes. But definitely more colors.Aug 21, 2012 Comment Link

No problem BJFox. The paint job hit home because my Mustang is Lava Red. It looks black unless the light hits it just right and then it looks like a dark maroon with a hint of purple. :)Aug 20, 2012 Comment Link

I would love to see color options made available. The current standard colors could be included in the base cost and the additional colors made available at an additional charge.BJFox
I just did a custom paint job on my M18x R1. It is the same color as the Camaro in the image posted by DieselSS. You can see it here [LINK]
