You can also get faceplates from Decal Girl they appear to have a larger range than psptree, but you have to take into account shipping from the US.

ooh, I like the idea of matt black. The glossy finish looks filthy unless it's cleaned every ten minutes.

I have to say that I’m somewhat disappointed with the build quality of the PSP...
Typical Sony imo.

Nice to know that replacement parts are available though, as no doubt I'll be getting a PSP at some point.

I'm hoping that the same thing happens with the DS Lite, as I could do with a replacement shell - the white one is more of a dirt magnet than I expected. Would be nice to do a mix-and-match job too (black system with white buttons anyone?).

yeah this is old stuff... i got a face plate from decal girl months ago. its nice though case the plastic over the screen is a seperate piece so you can just switch it out for a new one if the old one gets messed up

Thanks, Thats very usful to know. I have saved that bookmark incase I need replacement parts. I did have a feeling that the analogue sticks would probably snap and feel mine will go soon.

£35 for a repair? Sounds pretty good to me!

Given the poor quality of the site, if I hadn't read this article, I don't think I'd have trusted them to fix my PSP if it ever broke!

If you can't say anything meaningful or remotely useful, don't say anything.

Yer, you'll always need a hankee or screen wipe with you if your playing your PSP, or your sleeve and a bit of spital... not so gaming retro!

The clear face plate is also a nice addon for a PSP, probably get one, and also the liquid silver... very nice.

But ive never get the yellow Ferrari face plate, never in a million years, it'll look so chessy and like a Ferrari Asus, just a cheap tie in but not offical.
