I've seen some small bezels there cheap.

Happs I hear doesnt' charge that much for the smaller bezels (the 27" is about 18bucks...and 50 for shipping

but the paper version, and use the slightly expensive poster board and I bet it would look nice... put some smoked glass over it... and your good to go

Since it's 20" I'm guessing your monitor isn't an arcade monitor. If this is true, the Happs plastic bezel isn't going to fit properly. You might be able to trim one to fit though.

Other options would be my 2$ bezel

Thanks, I may go with a piece of 1/8" plywood sanded smooth with a couple layers of paint to smooth it out. Then plexi or glass on top.

I have 2 good suggestions for you.
1. Take a peice of thin plywood and cut out in the middle where you screen is, then keep doing about 3 layers of this, each about a hlf inch in to give a 3d efect to your display, just screw or glue the peices together, goup, sand, and paint a few coats of black.
2. Take a peice of plexi glass, and on the back side put masking tap around the area the monitor will be, and spray paint the rest glossy black, when you put it on, all will be black except ypur monitor area.
