best PSP faceplates?

**Accordion** · August 21st, 2006, 17:15

in september my psp warranty runs out, so i am seriously considering changing the face plate, and buttons etc

i was wondering which are the best faceplates(with links to the best retailer) for quality, variety, price(in that order of importance)

any and all suggestions are welcome, as well as any precautions that should be observed when attaching the faceplate

if any SNES theme button sets exist please let me know

I don't know where the best ones are available, but make sure you do it in an area with as little dust as possible.

I used an XCM replacement pearl white faceplate when my original one got too many scratches and a crack but I found that it did not fit as snug as the original one particularly near the top USB connection so I have now ordered an original white faceplate from www.psptree.co.uk

Some things to watch out for when replacing the faceplate are obviously dust. I recommend using a can of aero duster to blow away any dust but I do not recommend using any sort of cloth to remove dust from the inside of the face plate because it will definately cause lots of minor scratches guaranteed.

If your Dpad is as crappy as mine you might also want to do this Dpad fix while you are at it. If your warranty is voided you might as well make the most of it
