You can paint the red parts, it's been done before.

 

But I'ld personally just pick a different board

i dont really what to paint the board and i really really what it but do you not think if i put in bright blue uv  light it will cover it up?

Why would you want Formula? Just get MSI Z87-G55, it fits your theme and supports almost everything that Formula does. If you want that Thermal armor, just get Sabertooth.

Still, Formula is a waste of money, it costs $300 and...nothing.

The Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H would also fit your color scheme. It's a bit more expensive but way cheaper than the Formula. That Gigabyte board and the MSI G55 or G43 are your best bets for quality in a blue color scheme.

 

Don't try to paint your MoBo, it's such a sensible part of your build and there's so much you can damage when you're fiddleing around on it.

who cares...

You can cover most of the red in the PCIe slots just by filling them up. If you want to cover up the RAM slots try and get some large memory with big heatsinks.

something like this and you will barely see the slots...
