Why this product deserves the listing
The eXtremeRate Clear Atomic Purple Shell for Xbox Series X|S Controller delivers a clean, high-impact visual upgrade for Xbox gamers who want their controller to match their setup without compromising build quality. eXtremeRate has become one of the most trusted aftermarket shell brands in the custom controller space, and this Clear Atomic Purple finish stands out as a popular pick among the modding community.
ModZone selected this product because the fit tolerances are tight, the ABS plastic feels close to OEM quality, and the Clear Atomic Purple colorway fills a real gap in what Microsoft offers out of the box. If you are tired of the standard black or white controller look, this is a reliable way to change it up without paying for a full Design Lab order.
Key features
- Premium ABS plastic construction with smooth or textured finish depending on colorway
- Clear Atomic Purple finish that is not available from Microsoft directly
- Precision-molded to maintain the same button feel and trigger response as OEM
- No permanent modification to the controller electronics required
- Compatible with standard Xbox Series X|S disassembly tools (T8 Torx screwdriver)
Compatibility and fit
This shell is designed exclusively for the Xbox Series X|S (Model 1914) controller. It will not fit Xbox One controllers, Xbox Elite Series 2, or earlier models. Please check the model number on the back of your controller near the battery compartment before ordering. The correct model is 1914.
Installation requires a T8 Torx security screwdriver and a plastic pry tool. The process takes 15-30 minutes for a first-time installer and does not require soldering.
What is included
- Faceplate only in Clear Atomic Purple finish
- Installation does not include tools — a T8 Torx security screwdriver and plastic spudger are recommended
- Controller is not included
Buying guidance
If you have never opened an Xbox controller before, watch a shell swap tutorial on YouTube before starting. The most common mistake is overtightening the screws on reassembly, which can cause button sticking. Go slow, keep the screws organized, and avoid forcing any clips.
This is a faceplate only replacement. If you want a complete overhaul including buttons, thumbstick rings, and D-pad, check for the full shell kits that include those parts.
Best for
- Gamers who want a unique controller look without buying a new controller
- Custom controller builders and modders who swap shells regularly
- Content creators who want matching gear aesthetics for streaming setups
- Gift buyers looking for an affordable but impressive customization option

What modders are saying
Third one for the collection
Verified Purchase
This is my third eXtremeRate faceplate and the consistency between units is impressive. The Clear Atomic Purple version matches my setup perfectly. Install was routine at this point. The ABS plastic resists fingerprints better than the stock glossy finish on my other controller.
Clean upgrade from the boring default look
Verified Purchase
Was tired of staring at the same stock controller during every session. This Clear Atomic Purple faceplate completely changes the vibe without touching anything electronic. Took the T8 Torx to it, had it apart and back together in under 15 minutes. Zero wobble, zero rattle.
Perfect for my streaming setup
Verified Purchase
Needed the controller to match my desk aesthetic for stream camera. This Clear Atomic Purple version nails it. Looks sharp on camera and in person. The mold quality from eXtremeRate is a clear step above the cheaper shells I tried before.
Color is even better in person
Verified Purchase
Photos do not fully capture how this Clear Atomic Purple finish looks under normal lighting. It has a depth to it that the stock shells simply do not have. Triggers and bumpers click exactly the same as before the swap. My second eXtremeRate shell and both have been perfect.
Nice shell, need to be careful with clips
Verified Purchase
Product quality is definitely there. Clear Atomic Purple finish is smooth and uniform. The only challenge during install was the small clips near the trigger area. They require gentle pressure with a plastic spudger. Used too much force on my first attempt and had to reset. Once properly seated everything is solid.
