All kidding aside, as noted somewhere in the threads above, I did successfully spray paint an old used little resale value 50-230 XC zoom. Worked great, the lens looks great as it shows a little worn look to it and it's still one of my favorite lenses.
Now I wouldn't do this with a collectible lens like some of my old glass or with an XF lens that has good resale value but my copy of the XC50 -230 was used to begin with and the silver finish was wearing and so I thought what the heck give it a paint job. The lens still works great and I'd do it again with the right lens.Actually this thread made me remember my model railroad days, when I would experiment with various mixtures of Testor's paints and thinner to 'weather' my train cars. All joking aside, if I were to attempt this idea, I think I'd forget black and be as unique with the new finish as I could. A quick search online yielded these funky results:To the OP: no sandblasting, but make it uniqueDid that to some of my vintage cameras. And baked them in the oven. Bad idea as even then, there were plastic lenses. I'll make some pics tomorrow.

Can you guys recommend any method for me to remove or blur out the camera so that it can be approved for use?Thanks in advance!Based on official statement at Mindef, the revisions are for SAF security zones. Due to the lack of details and information, I will not comment on whether this also applies to SPF.Going on to answering your question.For removal, you can google iFixit where there are detailed step by step guides on how to disassemble phones for repairs. Of course, in our case, it will not be repairs but only removal of the camera module.For blurring out the camera, a sandpaper with low grit number will work just fine.I will definitely recommend the former if you think the removal process is doable after looking up the guide at iFixit.

Reasons being,1. You do not damage the exterior of your phone in any way2. In the event when you procure a new phone, you can replace the camera module and sell the phone or pass it on to your siblings or relativesFor those of you who are still uncertain on whether it is allowed for the camera module to be self removed check out the following official release at Mindef at the link below.
