    I ordered the sager but i thought it would have a nice clean back lid like the pictures but instead it comes with the lil sager emblem in the center. Im wondering if theres a way to take that off and put in something else to make it look nice or what other options i might have.

    When I contacted Power notebooks earlier in the year when I was interested, they said I could get mine with emblem on or off.

    When I get my Sager Np2090 I'm going to replace the emblem with the Ferrari one and then get the Ferrari Logo Painted on the Lid, then get the whole thing painted in smooth, Ferrari-red, paint. Since yours has already shipped, does the texture of the plastic of the laptop allow for a sleek, glossy textured paint job?

    If you could disassemble the lid it would be very easy to give it a paint job. I would just follow basic spray-painting steps. Sand the surface smooth and clean and apply primer and paint.
