Modern power module to replace the old rusty one, cleaned edge connector, fixed cracks in the case, new coat of paint, and metallic stickers.

Looks like it’s been bleached too much or the white balance of the photo is way off. That’s definitely the wrong shade of NES gray.

It's not grey. The paint is matte white and matte black, all with a clear coat. The intent wasn't a restoration since the case had cracks and nicks in it.
