Not the first, won't be the last

Apple iBook + small hex key + small flat head screwdriver + filter for use with camera flash unit + little bit of sticky tape =

It's a deeper red than it looks in the photo.

Update: I'm chewing on a strawberry creme from a tin of Quality Street and thinking the translucent red wrapper is just the right size to use for this mod. So don't buy flash filters or similar, buy a box of Quality Street. It'll probably be about the same cost but you get tasty treats in addition to the bits of translucent plastic. The wrapper will be all crinkly though of course so it probably won't look as good. You could try ironing the wrapper flat, but I don't recommend that unless you've already decided you want to buy a new iron anyway.
