Thanks for the response. I searched for the thread you were referring to and found it. Unfortunately it involves dipping the shell in dye, which would probably ruin the wireless charging coiling on the inside of the 830's cover. Also, it appears someone tried the same 521 process with their 1320 shell and it didn't work. I guess the 1320's shell is of a different material.
I think I would need a solution that involves spraying the paint on. I re-watched that old video of the 920 being colored with Duplicolor Metalcast paint but I'm not sure if that process would be the same for this shell, which is thinner with a matte finish, unlike the thicker, glossy 920 shell.
