You want advice? dont do it.

To do it well you'll need to take the DS apart ( tri-wing screwdriver from www.liksang.com ) and get the case on its own, then sand and paint in 3 thin layers, then maybe get some of that clear finish stuff, other wise the paint will wear away around the buttons.
Theres tuts for painting the DC on devcast.dcemulation.com that may help. If you do decide to do it good luck.

Why shouldn't I do it though? Is it a paint flaking issue or something. Thanks for the input by the way.

Will do, but I want to buy I different color DS first so it may come not so soon. I say before June. I'll Keep you posted. I'm sure many people will like the design. ^_^ Thanks for the input. Nice DS

Ps. How do I get the Nintendo Logo out and the Back Sticker, or do I just mask over them?

i would just mask over them.. make sure you do it well but it would be the fastest and easyest way!

hw do I open the top part? Do I like pry it open with force? It seems like there isnt any screws holding it..

How about the link (swivel) connecting the top part to the bottom part of the DS..will it affect anything?

Is there a tutorial on opening the DS?
