Replace XPS lid/keyboard setting

[alexoldshane]

Hey. So, I'm looking into getting an XPS from Dell. But I HATE the lid and the silvery plate around the keyboard. Was wondering if there's anyway to replace the lid with an Inspiron or just anything. Wanting a flat black matte one. Not the fancy B.S. ones they're trying to sell with their DesignStudio deal.

And was kinda wondering if theres anyway to replace the deal around the keyboard with something not so reflective and silver. Its just kinda... ew.

Would get an inspiron, but can't customize it the way I want.

Hello alexoldshane;

I don't believe there's any easy way to do that. I'm also a fan of non-glossy material, including non-glossy (matte) screens. Although to get the 'whole package' at a good price I could be tempted to compromise some.

Reason came down to that, cause I'm having a hard time finding something aesthetically pleasing, but also runs a i5 with a good dedicated graphics card and a 15-16" screen. >_>

...You're really good at finding stuff. Was on that website for bout half an hour and didn't see that. Dumb filter options.

It's a terrible website. I've told Lenovo a couple times that their website is probably costing them sales.
