eXtremeRate Textured Blue Bottom Shell, Comfortable Non-Slip Back Housing, 3D Splashing Case Cover, Game Improvement Replacement Parts for PS4 Slim Pro Controller JDM-040, JDM-050 and JDM-055

When choosing the category, like picking the color and texture of your controller, not all of the models are the same! Make sure to browse the pictures for each category that displays JDM 040, JDM 050 AND JDM 055. Most of the DIFFERENT TYPES of shells under ExtremeRate don't fit for the same model. For example, I pick this blue textured bottom shell that shows in the picture that JDM 050 AND JDM 055 is compatible with a green check mark. However, I browse the green textured one under the same seller that only fits JDM 040 which it's says on the picture and doesn't display JDM 050 and JDM 055. So be careful! Make sure to browse the pictures on each category under ExtremeRate and disassemble your controller to find the model number before purchase! Anyways, it fits great on mine!

I purchased both the front and back shell sold by the same company so my review reflects my experience with both.Modding controllers can be pretty nerve wracking but it's absolutely doable. This shell in terms of quality was better than I expected and while it's not real wood it's a nice enough fake. I was surprised because the front and back shells are sold separately but the grain on both pieces still matches up really well.Now for what I didn't like and this may just be an issue with how I assembled. The sections where the two shells join on the grips where your palms rest aren't flush and is a noticable defect when you're playing. This is a pretty common issue around aftermarket shells so keep that in mind. The design of the PS4 controller itself doesn't do this any favors as well. Not a huge complaint but I have a lot of sensory issues so that's my problem. I would also make sure you have the right model controller to match with this shell. I tried digging through the reviews before purchase but I couldn't find an accurate model number. The controller I was modding was a model CUH-ZCT2U when this shell seems like it was made for a CUH-ZCT1U (if I have that right). This may be the real reason the shells didn't fit totally flush but again that's my fault. The main difference between the 2U and the 1U is that the rubber padding on the PS button for the 2U controllers is held in place by two pegs much like the other buttons but the 1U just has the padding stretched over the PS button housing. This may sound like nonsense but if you pull apart a PS4 controller you'll see what I mean. Again this isn't a big issue and I was able to make it work regardless but it's something to keep in mind.10/10 would definitely recommend. Will likely buy another shell for my personal controller as this one was for a Christmas gift.

Falsely advertised, i have the jdm-050 controller and it doesn't fit. It's close but isn't cut correctly.

So if your good with using an exacto knife and super glue, this can work.... BUT!!!! It DOES NOT JUST PIECE TOGETHER NICELY....Took awhile to figure out what I had to cut off, in order for it to fit properly, putting it together and apart several times....Then the plastic piece between the L1/L2 & R1/R2 Buttons wasn’t even on the new shell and I had to cut the original ones off and glue them onto the newAfter having to customize it and finally being able to use it. The edges didn’t all fit together properly....I still like the look, but for the price they charge!!!They should fit Perfectly!!!

Although it's not a deal breaker, the fit is far from perfect. How could it be when you buy the top and bottom as a set but they ship separately. They could be from different manufacturing runs which I think was the case with mine. As you can see from the pictures the shell does not fit smoothly like it should. If you look closely you can see the lines on the design do not line up. If your lucky enough to get a top and bottom from the same manufacturing run then maybe they will fit perfect together but don't hold your breath. How could this be sold as a set and not be quality controlled to make sure the top and bottom shell line up perfectly? I gave this 2 stars for the deceptive product description. If they were honest about the fit it would have been higher.

This is going to be a similiar review to the Front Shell. But this is the Back Shell.Theres something up with the seams, they are really noticeable. There was also discoloration so the shell would stick out. Basically, a decent size gap and its raised higher than the other shell.This might not bother you but its really not a good feel when its in your hands. The seams do not line up and its due it being raised up when holding it.Install isnt hard but it can be time consuming when testing it out with the original PS4 controller shells as well. Same issue with the seams.Its too bad because its a really nice looking shell. I ended up returning both of them.I wish this company would sell it as a set, and better quality control might have caught this. Who knows maybe i got a bad shell.Im not going to bother exchanging, as the install is fairly easy BUT again install is time consuming if it doesnt fit corrrectly then packaging everything back up and putting original controller back together takes a bit of time. ( just know watch out for the 2 ribbon cables ).

This is sort of deceptive. It is a brushed look but it feels extremely smooth. If you have one of their "soft touch" front shells expect that sort of feel. Installation was a breeze. The original screws do fit, just thread them through before installation. Mine fit without any burrs or seams at the edges.The only criticism I would have is for the inside cutouts for the led/usb portion. The cutout for the white thin plastic strip isn't right and I had to leave that out. Leaving it in created a gap in the case because it wouldn't close all the way. I just took it out, its not necessary for any function of the light bar (top or front) I transferred the sticker from my original shell (which was broken) to this new one.

Great surface

The shell itself was fantastic but the screws that accompanied the shell were of poor quality. The few that didn't break became stripped and impossible to unscrew.Had to literally shatter the shell to remove it.

I ordered this back casing along with a front casing from the same company. The back casing is just as high quality as the front, and was about as easy to install. The only problem I came across was the design of the notch for the PlayStation button. It appeared to be designed differently such that the rubber piece that holds the PlayStation button in place did not fit in properly. Because of this, the button isn't as secure as I'd like it to be. Instead, it requires a bit more effort than it otherwise should to press.Other than this slight issue, everything else fits nicely into the controller. The difference between this and the standard plating isn't noticeable in the hands. I would highly recommend picking up a back plate from this company if you're in the market for something new for your PS4 controller.

I bought this along with a front panel as my dog chewed on my original one. Still trying to see if it will work with another 3d party front panel. Seems to be giving me some functionality issues but it’s 2 different design n company. Worked great for a month then some buttons weren’t working. I’ll have to take it all apart and re assemble it again and see if that helps if not I’ll be back to edit this posting

Very easy to install feels great in the hands not as slippery as the stock!!! Make sure you open your controller before you buy it and check the part number of your chip JDM-040 , 050, 055 and that your touch pad lights up because it won’t fit the gen 1 JDM-001, 011, 020 .. I bought this to see if it would fit my jdm030 but I’t did not so I put it on my newer jdm055 controller !!! And it fits perfectly no raised edges !!! So again caution if you gave it a bad review because it didn’t fit its cause you didn’t open your controller to see the model!!!
