It'll definitely void your warrenty, you need to completely disassemble 
the whole unit.  I can definitely help people who want to get the 
lettering put back on after they paint their cases, but like I said it's 
not cheap at all (probably $70-80 just for that).  After trying 
unsuccesfully for weeks to find a place to actually do the work, it became 
pretty apprent that no one in my area wanted to work on only a single 
unit.  However, at the last place I had on my list to try, I got lucky as 
the owner is a drummer who thought my little project was cool and he took 
sympathy on me.  I just called him and he said that yes he can do other 
cases, but because he needs to reconfigure all his printing equipment for 
just a single unit, it'll be kind of expensive.

If anyone's interested in this (like I said it WILL void your warrenty), 
contact me off the list and we can work something out.  BTW, keep in mind 
that the plastic LCD cover will still be yellow and orange too (the 
writing), it took me far longer to fix that issue than to actaully paint 
the whole case :)

Cool I am thinking of doing it too and any information from you will 
help, or maybe you can even do it for me just tell me how much you 
want.
I am sure that it will raise the XL/MP value.
One question, will that will void the warranty, even tough it is only 
cosmetic change.
