This is where I got mine, just gotta swap the internals of other joy cons, not too bad of a process if you have the right tools and a little technical savvy
Brief story time:
I bought the BASSTOP white+white joy con housing shell set from Amazon link
I had no idea what I was doing, and just kinda went for it following a number of youtube tutorials and various blog posts.
While I was nervous throughout the whole process, overall, it wasn’t too bad.. The trickiest part, as you’ll see the Amazon reviews remark, is the screwdrivers that the kit came with. The black screws on the back of each joy con are essentially stripped at this point.. I would definitely recommend getting a better set of screwdrivers, especially if you plan on taking them apart more than once.
It came out so nice looking though, and I am very glad I did it!
Overall, the shells feel identical to the original ones.
The only issue I have with it is the right joy-con seems to be a little larger than the original one and sticks up from the console just a bit when its attached. It also feels a little snug while sliding it onto the screen. It isn’t super noticeable, but still there and may bother some people. (this could just be my set, not a universal thing).
You mean like this? Just pretend the Green and Red buttons are swapped, because they are. The picture is wrong, the colors all correspond to the correct positions when sideways.
Some of the videos I've seen on installing them say they had to file certain parts for buttons to fit correctly. Did you run into any of these issues? If not do you have a link to the pair you bought? I've been eyeing a white shell for my joycons on Amazon. This one:

The white variation though.
They come with colored buttons, but we left the grey ones in. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073VMJNVX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_WwVYzbVKD44ZC
Sort of! I bought white skins from DecalGirl. I did this shortly after I bought my Switch during midnight release. However, there are ways to get white joy cons. You can either spray paint it or replace the shells. They sell them on Amazon for roughly $20 USD.
pretty sure BASSTOP or whoever else sells shells has buttons like this for joycons.

Nope! An online kit.

My switch has some really really loose joy cons, they wiggle A LOT and the right joy con will slide off the switch if you put enough pressure on it, I was wondering if you guys know if buying this shell for the switch and joy con will fix those issues? Here is the shell I want to get: https://www.amazon.com/BASSTOP-Portable-Replacement-Controller-Electronics/dp/B073VK5ZRV/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1504762592&sr=1-1&keywords=BASSTOP%2BPortable%2BDIY%2BReplacement%2BHousing%2BShell%2BCase%2Bfor%2BRight%2BLeft%2BSwitch%2BJoy-Con%2BController%2Bwithout%2BElectronics%2B(White%2BWhite)&th=1

Looks like it!
Have you seen the White Joy-Con shells you can buy? They look really nice if you want to change the color of your joy-cons for cheap.
Here's the link if you want: https://www.amazon.com/BASSTOP-Portable-Replacement-Controller-Electronics/dp/B073VMJNVX/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1504234885&sr=8-1&keywords=nintendo%2Bswitch%2Bwhite%2Bjoycon%2Bshells&th=1
Found these on amazon.com they are available in different colors from a company called Basstop, anyone ever heard of them?
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073VMJNVX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_6NqBzbXVNPG2M
yeah here !!
I would like to get this joycon shell but I don't like the colors of the buttons, as I feel they are out of order (i.e. green a, red b, etc). Any advice?
