Piano Black PSP 2000 Series Full Shell Cover Housing Replacement with Button Set

This made my PSP look like new again. I bought it to replace a scratched screen. For that it worked perfectly.I only replaced the front piece, as the back seemed rather daunting. I was able to change out the front in about 30 minutes. I you have to pre-thread the holes! They're hard to start even then. I had to take it apart twice, but it was my fault because the first time i smudged the screen and second there was spec of lint trapped inside.I used the black front and battery cover with a solid red special edition. I kept the old buttons and now it looks really great IMO, better than the second God of War special edition.It looks brand new from the front. My only complaint is the top strip of plastic isn't as flush as it was. It's probably my fault with the screws. I haven't had any problems with it. I've probably played with it +40 hours and never had any screws come out or anything break.

It came with all the announced parts, installing the case was a fun challenge without turning into nightmare though this procedure may appear, thanks to the simple design of the PSP primarily and secondly to the guide provided through the web site of the seller which it's spot on in every step need it to complete the transferring of all the internal parts of the PSP, but at the end some problems emerged, first when preparing to do this case change opening the new case resulted in a couple of plastic pieces to broke apart, which one at the end resulted to be a useful one (thankfully not a imperative piece, taking apart that it may be possible to glue it where it's suppose to go) the other I didn't found what purpose it had so ended up dumping it, the other problem was that the power slider is very tight and wont act as in the original (also this may be solved with some kind of lubricant compound).After all the experience was over, the results even with its few problems were admirable, the glossy finish of the old original case can't even match the new one and it looks merely just as a new PSP out of the box.

So I bought this old PSP 2000 from someone for $20. As you can tell by the price, it was in pretty bad shape. So I bought this. BAM! My psp now looks like I just bought it for $175 new!Pros:all fancy like and prettyThe screwdriver included made it much easier to remove the screwsReplaced everything aesthetic about the psp, even the buttons and switchesCons:the new screws took some muscle to screw inNot a very high price to make your psp all fancy again - DO IT!

despite no instructions it was everything i needed. i used youtube to put it together, which worked rather well because i could see what i needed to to. however the weak plastic that all psp shells are made of, broke as i was putting the disk door back on. i couls have avoided that by being more gentle but i got in a hurry. so just take your time.

Case fit okay, but the door latch didn't always stay shut. Unknown if this is a product issue or installation issue.

Great shell for the most part, I had some trouble with the supplied buttons so I had to use the ones I already had. Though this could of only been my problem, I still recommend this if you want to make your PSP look brand new.

I bought this item thinking it was going to be a cheap plastic housing that failed to fit, but I was very surprised to find that it was just like the real deal. My PSP looks just like it did when I bought it and it was worth every penny.

i choose this rating because this item are so great....i update my old psp with this new cover....i recomend it
