you can take it off and pop it open with an opening tool then take out the innards and paint it yourself...

Ummm.. Yeah, there isn't the specific detail you want, in Knights' thread..
But its the same logic AND same tools AND same procedure that ought to work, in my opinion.
Its actually a job of covering (with tape or something) the areas one DOES NOT want the colours splaterred on.
I even tried using Enamel (nail thingy put by girls) and special water soluble gum, over the keys.. But got jittery..
I am not sure as to where on the I-net, proper P910 accessories can be found

and designer ones at that..

I can tell just by inspecting the keypad that it comes apart. I haven't actually put much effort into it, but I can tell you that the dark grey unclips at the top right where it folds over to the keyboard on the back. I haven't actually pulled it apart because it is just so delicate and I haven't had any desire to paint it yet.
Personally I wouldn't try to pull it apart unless I had an extra, and even then, I would probably just mask it and paint it like sailaab said.

Flip off the cover working from the edge away from the hinge, there are a couple of clips on that top edge, and a couple each on each of the other 3 sides. (do it carefully as it is quite fragile). From there you can remove the keys easily. The rest of the PCB's and things are quite heavily stuck down, so I just masked over them and the contact set. Relatively easy job....
