I ordered a faceplate with side panels, back plate, buttons, and new joysticks for my Xbox Series S controller, all from ExtremeRate and every product is amazing. Shipping was fast, arrived in just 1 day and everything came complete to my order. All of ExtremeRate's pieces are designed and manufactured to be the same as oem, so everything fits together perfectly just like the original controller. I've never taken apart a controller before so I wasn't to sure what I was getting myself into, but I watched ExtremeRate's instructional videos on YouTube and had no problem taking the controller apart, installing the new buttons/joysticks and putting it all back together with the new plates and it only took me about 30 minutes, start to finish. Everything fit great, it all lined up perfectly, none of the buttons or joysticks are sticking, they all feel just as they did before. If you watch their instructional videos and u don't rush, u should have no problems installing any of their products even if ur a first timmer. Overall I give all of the products I ordered 5 stars out of 5, without any doubt about it. I'm really diggin the new look of my controller and I'm sure u will to if u go with ExtremeRate. Read more
Look great! Friends love how the controller looks too. Feels great too. Hard to explain, it’s soft and doesn’t slip out of the hands. You’ll feel the difference once you get it. Changing the shell isn’t very difficult either. I’ve never changed one before and had no problems. Now I did watch a few YouTube videos, I think that’s a must. I also purchased a hobby tool kit, not pricey at all. Has ALL the tools you need for these kind of projects. BUT if you don’t have those tools or can’t buy them, don’t worry they send the tools you need to change the shell with the shell. I have both Xbox X and PS5. Doing this to a controller for both systems. The Xbox is WAAAAAAY easier, done in minutes with the Xbox controller. No gaps, no overlays. Highly recommend this!!! Read more
The videos on their YouTube channel were very helpful in assembly process since I had never done this before. Love the look and the texture is extremely smooth. No grip texture on any part just soft and smooth, but not slippery so you can still have a firm grip. I got all the wood grain colored pieces I could find since I wanted the complete look. The pieces also come with all the required tools needed. Although I felt I had to use my Swiss Army knife to pry some parts off cause the plastic pry tool they give was just bending. It came out perfectly and I’d say for those who haven’t done this before that this piece is about the easiest to remove/put on in my opinion. I love it and the texture feels extremely comfortable!

It looks really good in person, and I am happy with the purchase. The texture is very smooth. -1 star because I thought it would be brown plastic, but it’s white plastic that was painted (as evidenced by the white sections on the other side). I’ll increase the review if it turns out the paint doesn’t fade or wear off. Read more
IDK why I thought these were actually going to be a wooden veneer/panel. In spite of the fact that they are actually made of plastic they look and feel really nice installed. There is a video link to instructions and these are super easy to install. Took me about five minutes. The side panel is a bit more slick that the other cheeks were. Everything fits up nice and tight, no strange gaps. Kit includes the driver and some extra screws as well. Would recommend and purchase again. Read more
Easy to install, good price, great color, nice texture. It is one of those textures that shows hand oil a little more than others, but it cleans nicely. Read more
