Pros: For the most part, this housing looks great. I bought this for my girlfriend's ds and she loves it.
It comes with all the parts that you'll need to completely change the look of your ds lite.
The color and finish of the paint are nice, although there were some inconsistent patches (see cons below).
This housing seemed to be of a higher build quality than the clear one that I've previously ordered from DX.

Cons: If you look closely enough, you can tell that a ds fitted with this case is not the official nintendo version. The paint on the battery door seemed to be too thick, causing the paint to warp when the battery door was fitted on. The paint on one of the corners of the battery door on my housing was a little raised. There are no chips, though.
Also, the paint surrounding the upper screen was sprayed on too thick. When I put in the top screen, it just seemed like a snug fit. However, after a few days the middle of the screen began to bulge out. I'm eventually going to take apart the ds again and sand down the paint to make the screen fit properly.

Other Thoughts: This case is fairly pricey.
Don't get it if you don't know what you're doing.
The paint and finish look nice....

Bottomline: Get this if you want this particular housing style for your ds. The paint on this housing is not perfect, but for the most part it looks awesome.
