I would assume so. I doubt Brandon would refuse to service a unit unless the internals have been seriously messed with, which wouldn't be the case just from having the case removed and coated
The Darwin From Evolv!!!

Yes, powder coating the Darwin will void the warranty, however Brandon will most likely still fix any issues for a fee. Those who know Brandon can imagine that fee would not be very high. I have mine in the chop shop right now getting her makeover. Chopper does amazing work!

You'll have to share some pictures when it's done
. What kind of coating are you getting?
I know someone already answered you but I can confirm that I heard Brandon will still work on the Darwin after it has been chopperized. I think what I might do is, wait until I get two before I chopperize a Darwin, but we will see how it goes. I guess I should just focus on getting the first one lol.
I'm getting the Hot Candy Blue, can't wait!

I've got my color picked out just waiting on Evolve to supply the Darwin.....
I do not speak for Evolv but I'd be careful about accepting other posts promising Evolv will service opened devices. Even if they do it once or twice (which I am not sure they have), could have been special circumstances, does not mean they will make it policy. As far as I know - the warranty policy has been opening a darwin voids the warranty. Nobody is "authorized" as far as I know and, also as far as I know, nobody is "authorized" to speak for Evolv as to what Evolv will and/or won't do. Not trying to be confrontational here - just concerned seeing people speaking/posting authoritatively about Evolv's services (especially when those promises are contra to policy) and other people relying on those promises. Sorry.
Thanks for that....I'll definitely check with Evolve and then make a decision.
Well put, Nebula. I don't think any of us knew for sure, was just kind of speculating myself. I guess one of us needs to actually ask Brandon. It looks like Keeno volunteered!
I need a Darwin first to boost my motivation factor.....
I should have one soon though and I am going to inquire....feel free to beat me to it and post up what ya hear from Brandon.....

Well, hate to say this guy's but after about 5 months with my Darwin I will be getting a second one. I use this one too much to the point if it did break or stop working I would be dead in the water. And now with my charger cord for car,computer and home plug it is working almost 24 / 7. 
From everything I have read in here, nobody said that the warranty would not be void, and I didnt see anyone make any promises. People were relaying info that they have heard, but you are correct when making a significant purchase like a Darwin, obviously you should go directly to the source.
Yes, but the discussion was about assuming the warranty was voided and then having Evolv service the painted Darwin for a fee, and I don't see why he wouldn't do it, unless upon receipt he sees it has been tampered with inside. A flat out no that he won't look at opened mods with the understanding that the warranty is void, I can't imagine.
Not sure if you are talking to me, but I dont think that was ever in question, and I dont see where anyone said the contrary. You had your darwin done correct? Did you talk to Brandon about if it needed service?
Good question... What did you miss? I am not really sure to be honest because it has been a bit quiet here lately. I almost missed my veteran turning early this morning because I wasn't paying attention
