I plan on painting my macbook when it comes in but I want to have a spare shell for warranty stuff.
Or can the shell even be removed completely?

Last I knew Apple was gluing the batteries to the shell so removal would be tedious at best and more than Likely impossible.

What a bummer. Apparently I might shear the trackpad cable trying to get the battery out. I guess I'll have to just get a crappy snap on cover like everybody else.
Oh well thanks for the heads up
