I believe they actually cast the shells custom and that would explain the exorbitant price and limited availability.
A method that I have always figured would work would be to just lightly mist some red paint (this stuff would probably work best) on the shell. If you get proper paint and actually do the prep work, it should be reasonably durable. The finish will wear off over time though.
When I made my Latios/Latias GBA, I started with a clear shell (I was taking wear and tear into account and I figured clear would be cooler than black). I used black primer and when I applied it, I did it in very thin layers. Before I applied my base coat, my shell looked like a smoke black version.
yea darkining the metal instead of painting over it looks a lot nicer. If you still want some red though using careful light coats of something like this could work wonders
