I wasn't entirely sure where the best place to post this was, if the mod's are unhappy with it here and want to move it that's fine by me.

I wanted to have my Switch to be kitted out in white with the classic SNES buttons and D-pad so decided to go ahead and purchase both the BASSTOP White Back Plate DIY Replacement Housing Shell Case for NS NX Switch Console Without Electronics (Switch-White) and BASSTOP NS Joycon Handheld Controller Housing with D-Pad Button DIY Replacement Shell Case for Nintendo Switch Joy-Con (L/R) Without Electronics (Joycon D-Pad-White). Both items can be purchased from Amazon, will post links at the bottom of the thread.

In my opinion the kick stand from Basstop is far superior to the official Nintendo one, this one actually stands up properly where as the official Nintendo one didn't properly (for me anyway)

Also wanted to showcase the new '3 strap' modification used with the Trinket m0 which among many other features allows for pure cold boot, power button and you're straight into your bootloader or payload.bin of your choice.

All work was carried out by @mattytrog so if you would like a Trinket install, housing modification, nand chip upgrade or something else then send the fella a DM, you won't find a more helpful, pleasant and patient person.

Here's a picture of the front of the console

Here's the back of the console

I also made a very quick video showing off the cold boot, mine's setup to use Argon-NX with a selection of payloads available from the menu...
