The keys have a nice textured finish. Almost a little rough but should smooth out over time.
Pretty slick cable routing underneath the keyboard. This should work well with my headset.
The back of the glossy face frame.
Here you can kind of see how the orange piece is removable. More on that in a minute.
Nice thick study metal base for all the keys to attach.
White LED backlit Cherry MX Browns.
Rubber damping O'rings. Can easily be removed.
Decent looking PCB, nothing special.
Here you can see the thickness of the PCB and metal plate.
Okay because I didnt want orange here is how the mod come into play. The orange piece just snaps into place but is also melted there as well. It has little plastic rods that protrude through the holes and they have been melted to the black glossy trim to ensure a good mate. All you need to do is take a knife and chip away the little orange pieces that are melted. They dont adhere to the black part very well and shouldnt be too bad to remove.
Now it just needs a coat of black paint

This can also been down to the entire glossy portion as well if you repeat the same process.
