Front Face Plate Faceplate Shell Case Cover Replacement for Sony PSP 1000 1001 Fat (Black)

The thumbstick hole was not big enough and had to be drilled - this was time consuming and difficult. I managed not to scratch the faceplate during this modification, but be aware that you will need tools and patience to even get this faceplate to work because of a flaw in its design. Also, this faceplate doesnt come with any buttons, meaning the buttons have to be removed from your previous faceplate and put into the new one. This was fine for the most part, but the bottom row of home/volume/start/select is quite flimsy, and my start button broke off during removal. It still works, but its loose and a little disappointing. Finally, the bottom of the faceplate is weirdly raised where the original is not. This means home/volume/start/select are more difficult to press. The faceplate did fit and had all the right screwholes, but i do not reccomend this product.

Easy to install

As expected, cannot complain.

My original PSP 1000 had a cracked & scratched up faceplate, and this was a cheap and fast replacement. Its not the exact same. The screen is technically a separate piece from the rest of the shell, unlike the flush original version. The textured bit above the screen is also slightly different. That said, it still fits great on my 1001 and looks 90% the same.

Great way to make your old PSP look new again.

The writing on the plate was faded and scratched. I was going to return it but it was thrown in the garbage before I got the chance.

Perfect replacement for your worn out phat PSP, love it!!!

It looks almost exactly like the original. Fit is pretty good. Only the circle button didn’t fit with it, had to file one of the little tabs on that button down to make it work, all else is pretty much fine and nobody can tell the difference. Looks good.

Horrible fitment did not work for my 1001 I’m sure if I did some drilling to make it work it would have worked but what’s the point of buying something new if you have to mod it? It should work out the box!

I like how clean and new it looked. However, the molding on the inside where the buttons should be placed is off measure. My buttons are looser and my start, select, and volume buttons are not as clicky. This is a good replacement if you want a cheap option if your ok with those issues.
