Unfortunately the prospects of custom two-tone cases returning is very unlikely. It just creates too much havoc with respect to production scheduling. We may introduce a "standard" two-tone option at some point in the future. We're trying one variant with the SM8 now.
Even if CL's doesn't offer this anymore. If I wanted a two tone case I'd just order in the color I wanted for the inside and down the road I'd buy replacement parts and turn my black case into a two tone case. I realize the added cost but, its still an option available.

Thanks for letting me know, I did assume this would be the case but thought I would ask in case it was a possibility in the near future.
I'll probably look into getting a black SMA8 and just plasti-dip the exterior in white
Thanks again

Problem with that is I live on the other side of the world, shipping for the case alone works out to be $260 US (~$340 AUD) If I add all of the assorted parts to it, it bumps the cost of shipping by another almost $100 (As well as the additional $350ish for the parts them selves)
I think I'll go with plastidip, that way if I change my mind later I can just peel it off

In light of this thread, I wanted to verify - If I order the "white" color BH8 today, it should still show up similar to this BH7, correct? I love the "two tone" look of the white cover / black base and want to make sure I am not ordering the whole thing colored one tone, in which case I Would just prefer it all be in black. Thanks!

Having built in a BH, myself, I can personally attest to the top notch quality
Good luck with your second build! Definitely post up pictures for us to see
