How do you color PCI-E/RAM/SATA ports on Mobo?

How would I go about doing this? I would like to make the color of the red ports to blue, and if that's not possible then black. Is this possible? I am not worried about warranties.

Why not get a board that already has the right colour scheme?

Find an electrician that is REALLLLLLYYYY good at soldering and replace the ports (Tiny Tom Logan had it done a few years back, think there is an OC3D video about it somewhere), or try Plastidip.

The picture is of the Rampage IV, not the Maximus VI like he wrote.
