Chosen Solution
I recently went to a repair shop to get the screens swapped from another New 3DS system because it had a better screen type. However, because the donor system was white it has this white border around the top screen which looks distracting on a black New 3DS system. Would it be possible in any way to have this border replaced with a black one while still keeping the same screen? Here is a picture of what I’m talking about

Yes, you can replace the border around the screen by dismantling the 3Ds. There are gobs of adhesive securing the screen assembly so it would be a difficult but possible replacement.
Yes, you can replace that…It’s the screen protector for the top screen. The best way would be to disassemble the device again and pop that one out and put a new one in there. BUT you can actually remove that without disassembling the device. It may make a mark on the plastic though so you have to decide if you are OK with that or not. Basically you can take a dental pick or something similar and pry it up from the plastic that it’s glued to. This process can gouge that plastic a bit though so that may not be worth it to you. Hope this helps!
Just color it with a fine tip sharpie? Beats paying for a replacement lens
