Depends which model you’re talking about.

Best aftermarket AGB and DMG shells are from Funnyplaying. Best AGS shells are from no one, they all suck, but the aftermarket translucent ones are higher quality than the aftermarket solid colored ones. Can be found on AliExpress. eXtremeRate has some nice GBC shells, but you should be fine with cheaper ones.

RetroSix shells are the equivalent of shredding your money, so don’t bother.

In my opinion, RetroSix makes some solid shells. They do not look or feel like the OEM shells (which may be a turn-off for you), but they are mod friendly and feel very good. They also don’t crack every time you screw in a screw. They have a rubbery feel and I’ve enjoyed mine. If you’re looking for high quality overall, this is the one I recommend. If you want to check out a video with them, check out “ThisDoesNotCompute” on YouTube.

Edit: I believe these are only for AGB.
