    I Want To Put A Chris Pirillo Or Apple Sticker On My Aspire One But HATE That Acer Logo In The Top Left Corner. Can I Somehow Find Matching Paint And Somehow Paint Over The Logo?

    Sand it down and spray paint the whole lid any colour you want. The method is in various threads here. The painting idea won't work, the finish would look terrible and you will regret it. Yea you could use viynil.

    Sticker it. I have as Aspire One as well, and I can tell you that nothing will match the finish properly even if you can match the color. The one on the inside is the same story.
