Game Boy Advance SP Prestige Shell - RetroSix
Game Boy Advance SP Prestige Shell - RetroSix
SKU : GBASP1003
RetroSix has discontinued many individual parts. Once these items sell out, there will only be shell kits that include a shell, buttons, membranes and a lens.
The prestige Game Boy Advance SP shell from RetroSix is a custom made high quality ABS shell. These shells are great for restorations or IPS installs with just a few easy trims.
FEATURES:
- Custom molded made with high quality ABS plastic.
- Easy-to-trim design makes it a stellar choice for IPS kits and original screens alike. Simply trim/snap off the small stumps inside the shell.
- Full shell replacement.
- The best hinges to use with these shells are these aftermarket ones. OEM and other hinges will be loose in the hinge housing.
- All clear variants are more of a frosted clear than a crystal clear.
INCLUDED:
- 1x Full front shell
- 1x Full back shell
- 1x Set of shell screws
- 5x Matching screw covers
- 1x Ribbon cover piece
- 2x Matching hinge covers

DOCUMENTATION:
- Proper Hinge Insertion Guide - use caution during this step. Refunds/replacements are not given if hinge housing or hinges break.
NOTES:
- "Matte" means the shell will have a soft texture.
- Shells do not have a cutout for the Nintendo Logo sticker.
- The shells feature self-threading screws as the screw posts are not pre-threaded. To avoid damage, do not over-tighten, as this may cause cracks. Refunds are not given in these instances.
- Created by RetroSix.

Bought the shell and it fit perfectly with the OEM parts and hinges
I really liked this shell. It was easy to install and fit really well. However, some parts were hard to snap in. Getting the shoulder pieces in there was a challenge and I really had to force it closed. Also, the screws were a bit of a pain to **** in, didn't feel like a perfect fit. I'm worried taking the screen apart is gonna be a chore. Other than that, looos really nice!
The translucent black version of this is very nice and allows the components to still be seen while providing that extra bit of style you want.
Casing plastic is solid. Clear black just like the picture. The screw holes on the other hand. Needed to drill them out a bit by hand, was not too fond of that.
Struggled to fit the IPS screen purchased but that is a 50/50 so I’m not nitpicking that.
This shell is great! True Matte with almost a velvety feel to it. Overall very happy.
Removed 1 star because it picks up oils from your hands like mad.
Also, there's a little gap on one side of the screen housing that I just cannot get to close, but this may be my inexperience in modding.
In totality, I love the shell, will buy more.
Ships pretty quick too, Handheld legends is based in my state of Pennsylvania. Pretty neat. ^_^
As always, Retrosix products are really good.
Color:
I choose a "clear" which is awesome. I now could see the beautiful GBA SP circuit board with my modification (satisfying moment).
Build Quality:
Of course, OEM shell is better than any other aftermarket shells, but this shell is good enough.
Delivery:
No problem at all. Purchasing from HHL is the fastest way of getting these things even if you are living in Japan :)
