    Hey guys!

    I've had the MSI GS70 for a few months now and to be honest I find myself not using it outside of the house because of the logo on lid. Is there any place where I could get a replacement lid like some of the white labels use (ibuypower,cyberpower,xmc, etc)?

    I remember searching on alibaba and a few other asian parts supplier and they had replacements for the other models that MSI offers, this is when the GS70 was first released. I've been searching for hours now and no dice, any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    I don't know if this will help, but the disassembly guide provided by MSI has all the part numbers on our model. Here's the guide: http://forum-en.msi.com/faq/uploads/172/MS-1771_Disassembly_guide.pdf
    Maybe you can see the PN for the lid and it helps on the search? Also, it can also help you when time comes to open it up and replace the lid.
    By the way, I'm not disturbed by the shield, but I'd love to know if there are replacement options, maybe I get tired of it and decide to change :)

    EDIT: Have you tried emailing those other companies and asking if they have it?
