The older opaque ones that are poorly molded and made with pretty bad plastic. Or the newer transparent ones that were better molded, but can develop cracking issues (specially around the hinges.) Looks like we have a 3rd option now! eXtremeRate seems to have their own unique molds, for both the shell and buttons. (the witness marks being in in different places, and lack of branding, are obvious tells) The molding seems well done with fine and straight lettering, everything fits perfectly with no creaking, no gaps, no sharp edges on the shell. The plastic feels thicker and stronger then the no name transparent shells. Time will tell if that makes a difference, but eXtreme rate seems to know a thing or two about making aftermarket shells for controllers so. I haven't tried their opaque shells but I imagine they use the same molds. I will go out on a limb and say, as of 2022, these are the highest quality SP aftermarket shells. I hope eXtreme rate adds more colors. Right now I'm using "Atomic Purple". I personally wouldn't describe it as that, since its not really that close to the OG GBC color, its a warmer purple. But it is a really nice shade of purple. If there ever was a "Pokemon Amethyst" THIS would 100% be the cartridge color. Some minor criticisms though: Screws: They could have been better organized and packaged in a resealable bag. With the amount of extras its slightly hard to tell what goes with what. - I also feel since this shell isn't pretending to be original, there isn't really a good reason to use Triwing screws. It really could have been all Phillips/JIS and that would have been fine. Also the screw on the battery door does not have a captive ring. Springs: The Shoulder springs are weak. I don't recommend using them unless you have to... Buttons: I can't help but feel its kinda tacky they come with buttons of the same color as the shell? But maybe thats just me. They aren't as good as originals, and they seem to be copying other aftermarket buttons - meaning the middle post is flat. Their remedy for the wiggle this causes is that the silicon pads are thicker, and while this works, the buttons again just don't feel as good as originals. EDIT: Slate compatibility. There is some minor incompatibilities between this shell and the 'Slate' Mod. It seems like the screw holes are in slightly different places (off by < 1mm maybe?) and the shell it's self might be slightly off? Unless your mixing and matching eXtreme rate shell parts with other shell parts, this won't affect you so. Review: Awesome quality and great price!!! - First off I LOVE THE ATOMIC PURPLE!! Okay, I purchased the atomic purple shells for both the game boy advance and the advance SP as I had both of those and they were in pretty rough condition being my daily use when I was a kid. I had gotten other shells only to quickly return them as the quality was subpar and/or missing parts. I came across extreme rate when doing a Google review for shells and noticed they were sold on desertcart quickly purchased the atomic purple shells for myself and when they arrived I was SURPRISED 😯 just holding half of the shell for the game boy advance I noticed the quality was immediately leagues better than the many others I had previously purchased. I then opened SP shell package and to my surprise the quality was exactly the same. Really great quality had all the parts necessary. Sadly I regret not having taken it before picture of the poor states of my old gamboys, but the end product is just AWESOME!! Thank you for such good quality products and for also providing the tri-wing screwdriver required. I DEFINITELY recommend these shells to anyone looking to give their Gameboys a Quality refreshed newer look. ## Features - Upgraded replacement full shell for GBA SP with full buttons, more accurate mold makes the installation smoother - IPS screen installation friendly.

The sp was definitely the easiest one I’ve done! The shell was the perfect size for my previously pink sp! I have not challenged the glow in the dark function much, but it does glow at least a little bit! The plastic feels great and string, pretty smooth to the touch! I love that it is slightly see through as well because I’m a sucker for the electronics that display the inner workings!
