Been slacky in the last few days... but...
I got my paint. Black, Orange and Yellow that doesn't require primer. I also got a clear finish can ready.
I starded to polish/sans with grade 400 dry/wet sandpaper. I should finish in the next few days.
Only then I'll be able to paint the "beast".
More picture to come.

ouch... took about 1 hours 30 minutes to remove all screw, plastic and all non-riveted part of the box. I also installed masking tape under the case, since I don't want to paint it,.
Sweet, glad to hear an update on this! I was curious how things were going. ;)
In my 50 'cheap' box, I found : - about 20 removable metal pieces acting like "spring" to prevent pannel vibration, - same kind of metal piece for expansion slot - about 10 plastic drive screwless device (made of 2 plastic pieces) - bunch of cabling linked to the front panel, I added some electric tape, removed the thing from the box in order to paint it as well.
I removed like 8 screw for nothing.... since there is a panel inside the box with screw at the bottom, but the top is soldered so it's not removeable.
It took me a while to figure there where 6 plastic pin holding the front panel... 2 of them where not really visible.
Basicaly, everything that isn't electronic inside the box will be orange or yellow, including most cable.
I think there is about 1 or 2 hours of sanding to be done, then the painting part.
