I DESPISE the new transparent overlay on my toolbar-how do I disable this?!

This is frustrating and I cannot find a way to remove this ugly transparent white overlay on my toolbar. I much preferred my toolbar matching the persona that I had equipped.

That helped me to move the tabs back to where I normally prefer them but did nothing to fix the transparency issue that I am having.

What I am disliking intensely is the semi-transparent white background that the toolbars and tabs all have. How do I remove it?
