eXtremeRateFull Set Shell with Buttons Touchpad Cover Compatible with ps5 Edge Controller, Scarlet Red Replacement Decorative Trim Shell Front Back Plates Compatible with ps5 Edge Controller

I could not find any OEM replacements, probably because Sony would rather sell brand new controllers instead of replacement parts. I received everything listed packaged in a box and plastic bags marked "made in China" (as if that was in question). Most of the parts aren't marked or complex in any meaningful way. The biggest disappointment was easily the pathetic raised plastic that is substituted for the rubber on the original controller.The controller feels very smooth in stark contrast to all the texture Sony provides with the original. There are no symbols on the touchpad, just a solid matte color. The entire shell feels like it could slip very easily from one's grip if their palms were sweating. The PS button is solid, not grooved like the original. There are some texture bumps on the trigger buttons, but I prefer the original trigger buttons.Installation is simple if you can follow instructions. There is an instructional video narrated by an annoying robot voice that is obviously reading a script written in Chinese and translated to English. The video is very helpful when determining which screws go where. The clips are very delicate, so using the least force possible is recommended.Overall this kit saves users from having to buy an entirely new controller if they want a different color or their controller has broken pieces. The price isn't terrible, but personally I would have preferred a more substantial feel in the plastic closer to OEM standards.

After mixing “Hope Gray”, “Black”, and “Scarlet Red” complete shell kits and buttons for the Dualsense Edge controller, I was pleasantly surprised to discover the pieces all fit very well together.I had never did this before and found the instructional video was nearly sufficient to completely explain the process. There were 3 points in the installation video that became difficult. So I had searched for other videos and pieced together these other sources of information in order to solve the problems I was having. 1) The shoulder (trigger buttons L2 &R2) had springs that popped off when disassembled. These springs were not mentioned in the video at all, probably due to my Edge Controller being a different model than the one in the video. I was able to find another video source that completely described the installation of these springs. 2) The shoulder (trigger L2 & R2) buttons have a part inside the button that needs to be removed, but the video doesn’t completely describe how to remove these parts. I was able to piece together information from other videos to remove these parts from the buttons. 3) There were several occasions where the pieces would not fit together and I had to take them apart and reassemble them over and over until they finally fit. Patience was key here.These shell kits do not come with all the tools you may need, such as tweezers for electronics, hairdryer/heat gun for the touch control pad, and a magnetic pad for organizing all the screws that are removed in the disassembly process, and a magnetic screwdriver is a huge bonus.The installation process took me just about 3 hours to complete. I did not replace the touchpad. Had I replaced the touchpad, I assume the installation process would’ve taken another half hour.These complete shell kits are a great value when you consider the cost to have someone build a custom controller. I would’ve easily spent an additional $100-$200 dollars more if I had this custom built.Overall the look is great. I got everything I was looking for in controller with a customized shell. The pieces fit well together, (admittedly) after several attempts of reassembling them. I was fortunate not to have any unsightly gaps in between the pieces.The quality is great and is similar if not equal to the strength, thickness and durability of plastics used in a controller directly from PlayStation.Much like the original plastics that came with the controller, I found the grip of this shell to be rather slick. So I installed some thin, rubberized grip, which makes for a very nice non-slip grip. This grip also helps with keeping the controller from sliding around on a hard surface like a table.Now I’m very happy to have a controller that I love the look of!

Very fun project and provides a very nice contrast to my midnight edge. Wish there was detail in the D-pad and buttons but still love the result. The first pic is before, second is after, third is the contrast

Great shell good value for the money i didn’t want to buy another controller in black so i did the shell swap instead also didn’t use the bumper and trigger buttons that came in the pack a ction buttons as well from the same company I got the clicky buttons 10/10 for me install was a little scary first time taking apart a dual sense edge but there are handy videos from the company that helps you get through it I like it a lotMods doneHall effect sticks, black shell, clicky buttons, and play vital grips

It’s made pretty well for the price like all of their other shells. The soft touch feel is also nice when holding and still allows you to grip the handles without worrying about it slipping or dropping. My biggest problem is how flimsy the back piece is when clipping in because I snapped two of them (one of them was a replacement) and after I finally got it to go on it still didn’t sit flush like it should’ve. Another issue that all of eXtremeRate’s shells have is the paint has already started rubbing off on the grip areas and I’ve barely even used it for maybe less than 5 hours total.
