IPS Ready Upgraded Glow in Dark - Green Custom Replacement Housing Shell for Gameboy Advance SP GBA SP – Compatible with Both IPS & Standard LCD – Console & Screen NOT Included

easy to put together

The box came without the shell in it and customer service were quick to respond and sent me a new shell out, fits great easy to put together and looks fantastic can’t wait to use these again for my next one!

Overall, I'm really happy with this replacement shell. The quality feels solid and it fits my GBA SP well. The glow-in-the-dark feature is super fun—definitely brighter than I expected, and it adds a nice touch if you like playing in low light. The instructional video was clear and easy to follow, which made the whole installation process pretty smooth. I also appreciated the extra screws they included—always nice to have a backup or two just in case. That said, there are a couple of small things to keep in mind. The included screwdrivers are a bit on the cheap side, so if you have your own tools, you might want to use those instead. The hinge cover has a slight wobble to it—not a huge deal, but noticeable if you're aiming for a perfect fit. Also, just a heads-up: there's no space on the shell for the original Nintendo logo sticker, so if that's important to you, keep that in mind. All in all, it's a great option if you're looking to give your GBA SP a fresh, glowing new look. Would definitely recommend, just go in knowing there are a few minor imperfections.

Pros: Excellent build quality, feels premium, IPS display fit perfectly with no issues, Consistently high quality (this is my 4th ExtremeRate shell), One of the best replacement shells available, Cons: Swapping housings requires some care and skill, Included guide isn’t very detailed (YouTube tutorials are much better), Overall: ExtremeRate shells are top-notch. This is my fourth one and the quality has been flawless every time. Installation can be tricky, but with a little patience (and a good YouTube guide) the end result is fantastic. Highly recommended.

Tried two other shells from other companies which were a terrible fit but this one is perfect in every way super nice fit and really high quality. Extremerate are the best in my opinion I use their switch Xbox and ps5 shells a lot never had an issue not once!! Highly recommend!

Super quality case, looks fantastic. Only thing worth noting is there is no recess on the shell to add the little Nintendo badge.

The overall quality of the shell is great looks good and fits together well, only flaws are the screwdrivers aren’t great and my shell was missing the flat screw covers which is rather annoying because there are not exact replacements online…

I cannot recommend this shell unless you have your own tri wing screwdriver, this driver is so soft and disintegrates when being used. Edit: Seller was quick to react to this negative review and initially the seller reached out to offer a refund for the poor experience but then rescinded this offer in lieu of a replacement screwdriver set which is not needed considering the content of the review.

My childhood SP was very much showing its age, and as practice for a couple of DS swaps, I decided to pick up this kit. I do recommend doing this swap alongside an iFixit video, but it's actually a very easy process. The shell is high quality, and I am an absolute sucker for anything atomic purple. The shell can be used with the normal screen or an upgrade IPS screen. Would absolutely recommend to fellow millennials who still have their SP's sitting around.

This replacement housing worked perfectly for my GBA SP and was a noticeable upgrade. The shell feels durable, fits well, and provides good protection once installed. The clear blue color looks great and really refreshes the console’s appearance. Installation went smoothly, and the material seems resistant to light scratches from normal handling. Overall, it functions exactly as intended and offers excellent value for the price. Very happy with the look and quality.

Great quality, recommended if you are fitting a funnyplaying v3 IPS screen. Fit exactly like a genuine nintendo shell (minus the nintendo logo on lid) 5/5

El material se ve de buena calidad ( no como el original pero si mejor que otras versiones chinas ), hay videos para la instalación en Youtube, todo ensambla perfectamente en su lugar y tiene múltiples repuestos de tornillos, gomas, resortes etc etc. Excelente producto.

The eXtremeRate replacement case for the Nintendo Gameboy Advance SP exceeded all my expectations! I wanted to give my childhood console a fresh look, and this case was the perfect solution. The materials feel premium and sturdy, with a smooth finish that closely matches the original quality. Installation was straightforward thanks to the included tools and clear instructions. The precision of the shell is spot-on; everything fit perfectly, and I had no issues with alignment. I especially loved the vibrant color options—it gave my SP a unique, modern flair while keeping its classic charm. If you're a retro gaming enthusiast looking to breathe new life into your GBA SP, this case is a must-have. It looks fantastic, feels durable, and offers excellent value for the price. Highly recommended!
