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

Works great no issues, especially for the price

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!

Worked better than some other replacements.

Looks clean

Everything was fine except this part it’s right underneath the psp logo and can cause joystick drag if the bottom of the shell isn’t secure the bottom one is the original while the top is the new one

Its not bad for the price. obviously it is not the same as the original and you will able to tell right away bjt its pretty close. the most noticeable thing is that the screen is attached to the plate like newer models of the psp. Also, the holes of where you see the lights On and Off are not plugged. The other holes that look like they were for the speakers are plugged but the original had them but the psp 1000 didnt have speakers in that location. Last, I struggled a little to put one screw because it wasnt centered in the right spot but I managed to put it in. Overall, its way better than the crap you get on ebay and the psp looks like new.

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.

Took the old screen off and put this on. Looks great now that I can see the screen again.

I bought this because it was advertised for the PSP 1000 series but it does not fit the Joy stick, it is too small I had to enlarge it with a knife to fit it properly.

This shell fits / works well with even an off brand joystick replacement and eliminated drift all together. (Joysticks on PSP 1000 are screwed into the face plate) Highly recommend this product to someone trying to refurbish their device.
