IPS Ready Upgraded eXtremeRate White Custom Replacement Housing Shell for Gameboy Advance SP GBA SP – Compatible with Both IPS & Standard LCD – Console & Screen NOT Included

I recently completed a GBA SP reshell project, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The reshell kit I purchased was of exceptional quality, perfectly matching the original dimensions and feel of the Game Boy Advance SP. The materials were durable, with a smooth, polished finish that instantly gave my old console a fresh, modern look.The installation process was straightforward, with all the necessary screws and tools included. The precision of the shell’s design made everything fit together seamlessly, and the pre-cut button slots were perfectly aligned. I appreciated how the kit also included new buttons and a fresh screen lens, which added to the overall rejuvenation of my device.Now, my GBA SP not only looks brand new, but it also feels sturdy and solid, just like the original. If you're looking to breathe new life into your beloved handheld, I highly recommend this reshell kit. It's an excellent way to preserve and enjoy your GBA SP for years to come!

This shell feels quite nice in hand. It feels sturdy enough to last for a while and looks very nice too.An issue that it had on arrival, but I've fixed was a rubbing plastic sound when the hinge moved. This was caused by a small bit of plastic that I had to file down. It wasn't a difficult job, but it warants a mention incase anyone else deals with it. After that I had no troubles to date.The screws included aren't the best. After some fiddling with them I decided to throw them aside and simply reuse the screws from my old shell. The screwdrivers included aren't much better.But overall I think it's a worthwhile pickup if you're trying to find a good reshell for your SP.

Finally upgraded my sp, looks nice but not entirely happy. The screws aren't the best sadly, I found that the shell doesn't come together fully either? Screws are tight but the heads come away too easy, also left a small gap..you can gently squeeze the shell and see it should come together more but it doesn't sadly. I would advise keeping the original screws if you have them.Along side this shell I decided to purchase the nicer buttons but upon install I found the dpad wouldn't always work so I had to take it apart and change the buttons, a shame as they cost more than simple replacement buttons.Overall the shells are better than cheaper replacements, but could be improved. Decent guide for the install too.
