Hey all
So something unfortunate happened... Do you guys have any suggestions for making this better? Stickers? Polishing?![]()

I have no experience with trying to polish or sand down something like this...but you might consider a full carbon wrap. Here's one I came across. Hope this helps.

If you had previously registered the unit within 30 days of purchase, then you can claim accidental warranty. This is the best solution, however you will have to pay for the one-way shipping sending the unit back to MSI while the rest is free.

Thank you all for your care. That full-carbon wrap doesn't include sides,and the scratch is on the side :/
The unit is 6 months old...
I'm trying black permanent marker but it looks blue-ish on the computer.. I think i'll just have to get used to it -

ADC would be a good choice if it bothers you too much. Keep in mind that is a 1 time deal, so once you use it it is considered fulfilled in full. You may want to wait for something more damaging, but also consider it is good for 1yr and you are already half way through that. As Kevin mentioned, it did have to be registered within 30days of purchase.
A very temporary solution would be a black tape like electrical tape or gaffers tape, just so it doesn't constantly catch your eye. -

ADC aside (especially if it's unavailable), there probably isn't any quick fix that will really not be noticeable. Permanent marker or black tape are probably the simplest ways to go about it.

You can also match the color of the bezel then simply refinish it and then repaint it.

I would personally look into some enamel polish or something that would cover and smooth it out. Might even look at using a small amount of plasti-dip applied carefully

Or better yet, just order the part from MSI if price is reasonable and if you don't want any hassle with polishing/repaint, do the replacement on your own if you are good with fixing things.

Thank you all so much for ideas!
ACD is not the case since i bought this computer from a reseller,the bddy is MSI GS70 barebone but it's not MSI..
Plasti-dip or enamel polish would be good,but since i'm a lazy piece of s*** i decided to get used to it. When it gets really old and scratched,i would try them!
Speaking of replacement part,I don't think only this part is replacable,It's a whole part...
Thanks a lot guys! -
