Matching white Gamecube stuff to use with Wii

I'm looking for matching white accessories to go with my wii. I know there are white gamecube memory cards out there, but i want a white controller. Anyone know if there is anybody making white controllers? I don't mean pale grey wavebirds, that just won't do. I want ones that match my DS and Wii

There is a Gamecube bundle-GameCube Console Pearl White and Mario Smash Football Bundle-that includes a white gamecube controller. But I don't know if you can buy separately a white controller.

I'm not sure, but I think it does. As far as I know, a European controller works on a North American console, but a memory card doesn't work.

It's not official, but does look pretty good. I know a few people that have used them, and have rated them quite high.

picked up a GC contoller from ebay for a 10er, good stuff, i wont ever get unoffical contollers when theres offical ones on the market. i think the pearl contollers may have been released seperately, but i would not hold your breathe for one to turn up, if it did it would be on a ebay and would go for a fair bit!

If you know what your doing then changing the colour of an existing official controller isn't too hard.
It would simply be a case of taking apart the controller and getting and empty shell then spray panting it with a colour of your choice. Let it dry then give it another layer. Once thats dry spray it with a clear finish and let it dry again then put it all back together and voila, a white controller

It's REALLY hard to find a new non-platinum wavebird anymore.

That being said, does anyone know of a replacement shell for the wavebird?

I have the platinum WaveBird and I like it. I'm into the whole everything should match thing, so I was kinda disappointed but upon further inspection, the platinum is almost the exact same colour as the silver stand that comes with the Wii... So I'm happy.
