Default Customising my backpack

I've been packing my room up and I decided to start packing my bag today too. First step- make it as functional as possible through any necessary additions/removals.
So, excitingly, I discovered how to remove the inner support frame thing. You can pull the two strips of metal out (I will leave them in there but I think that is cool). When I did this, I noticed that one was perfectly flat and smooth, and the other was totally curved but kind of neatly, into the arch of a back or something. What are they supposed to look like?!?!!
Secondly, does anyone actually use the raincoat on their bag? I''m travelling through eastern europe in spring, I don't think it will be sooooo wet that I need to cover it up.. I'm not even planning on keeping myself dry! And I'd rather not carry it around 'just in case'....
Also, where is a good place to stash a €50 note? Or should I make it €100?
Anyone customise their backpacks in any other ways?
On an entirely non-functional level I did a stencil on mine and want to add some more interesting stuff in my continuing procrastination.
