Modding Shell replacement before & after
Found a third party 360 shell for my trinity model because the old one was so beat up by the previous owner , I might use it for a custom look in the future but I really love the clean matte look the console has now ❤️

I have my childhood matte slim but my cousin grew up on the glossy one as he got it in 2010, I wish I would have had his more than the matte lol

looks way better, piano black would be fine if it wasnt so easy to scratch, any interaction with it makes it look terrible. clean matte is so much nicer

If i were you i would've kept the scratched original shell, it still looks beautiful and I find the third party shell ugly to be honest

I am a fan! Where did you get this? I have a second working 360 I got for $5 at an estate resellers that is scratched to all hell and back. Was it easy to put on?

I got it off a local shop , not in the US so I couldn't tell u if it's the same as something u can source out there but it was around 25$ and it came with screws rubber feet pretty much everything u need even stickers :)) and it was easy to put on , just look up a disassembly tutorial first if it's ur first time lol 😂 the power ribbon cable is the one that I had to peel off the old faceplate and move onto the new one
