Gloss Black - Vinyl Decal Mod Skin Kit by System Skins - Compatible with PlayStation 3 Slim Console

Absolutely pleased with this product. Applied greatly. Just be patient with placing it on because it’s thin material. Aside from that it’s exactly what I wanted.

Decent Skin if you can put it on, i had this on my ps3 for a few weeks before it started to peel and i eventually pulled it off. Its too hard to get on but if you get it on perfect and it stays it looks very nice

I bought this skin for my boyfriend because he's one of those guys that likes white everything, but we didn't want a whole new ps3 (just bought the ps4) so this was our alternative. Let me say that this skin looks AMAZING. Let me say though. If you're not detail oriented or patient this skin is NOT for you. He spent a total of 1hr and 45min meticulously matching up the sticker and putting this on the console. The end result was very worth it. I would buy again and again. Even the LEDS Show through the sticker. (see pictures) But I won't have to because it seems to be durable and the adhesive holds well!

Not at all the quality that you would get from other places like skinit, but it does look nice. Be very carful when applying it, you can tear or rip it if not carful. Unlike skinit product it is very thin, and if not applied correctly after the first few try's, it will soon fail to stick at all. It came with skins for two controllers as well, which I wasn't at all expecting. It was good I wasn't because the controller skins or extremely poor quality and I quickly discarded them. If your looking for a skin for a controller, go with a custom repainting. As constant contact with your skin will wear these skins out quickly. For the price it's pretty nice, I'm very happy with shinny mirror like gold coating that now adorns my PS3 slim. I believe it was $16 and some change, good price for this mid range product. If you don't have $35 to go with better quality like skinit, then this is a great mid range option. Beware of the dust this attracts, as well as finger prints, but that really goes without saying.

I first became interested in this product after I bought a white PS4. The white PS4 looked great in my media cabinet, but you could hardly see my black PS3 slim. I considered buying a white ps3 case on eBay, but they ship from China and I was concerned about the quality of the product I was getting. So instead I settled on this white skin.In the end, I was REALLY impressed. As you can see from my pictures, the PS3 and PS4 really compliment each other now. The job I did is not perfect. There is some overlap with some of the stickers and I have places where stickers are not quite flush with the edge of the system. If you were to get up very close, you would notice an air bubble or two, or maybe even a place where I tore the sticker. But if you step back a couple of feet, it looks great. All in all, this product definitely exceeded my expectations. I can't wait to show it off to some friends. I did want to share a few tips though for whoever purchases this.* The directions suggest using dish soap and water in a spray bottle and spraying the back of the sticker before applying so you can adjust it. This is a MUST, especially with the top sticker. You have very little margin for error. Once the sticker is down, it's not coming off without tearing and stretching.* I did this project while I was already taking apart my PS3 to replace the thermal compound. I believe this made adding the stickers much easier as I was able to remove both the top and bottom covers; move them around; and spray them liberally with soap, and still avoid any of the electronics in the machine.If you have the means, I would recommend removing the top cover of the PS3 when you put on the sticker to keep from damaging any internal components with the spray.* I didn't bother applying the bottom sticker to the bottom of the console as my PS3 sits horizontally, and no one will ever see it. I also didn't apply the sticker over the power and eject buttons. Use your own judgment for those though.* The set includes a controller skin, but I didn't bother with this as I already had a white PS3 controller.* Give yourself at least an hour to do this job, I worked on the top sticker for a solid 30 mins. to get as perfect as possible. I was happy with the result, but it was time consuming.A few downsides:* The sticker is pretty fragile. I tore it twice trying to use my credit card to remove air bubbles. They were barely noticeable, but enough to make me be more careful. Be gentle.* Once attached, the sticker is not coming off cleanly without tearing or stretching. So without the soap mixture, you only get one shot to do this right. (NOTE: That the instructions do say they will replace a sticker if you tear one if you pay the cost of shipping).* There really should be a diagram or number system telling you where each sticker goes. When it comes to the sides of the console, I had to look over the dimensions several times before I was convinced I was placing the stickers in the right places.I really loved the look of the PS3 after putting on this skin. I'm interested to see how it holds up over a few months. I'll update this review if needed.

I just bought a ps3 slim 2 weeks ago. I wanted the original phat ps3, but the gamestop rep said not to bother with a "gamestop refurb," so I got the Black Ops Slim. The original ps3 looks much nicer with the Piano black, whereas the ps3 slim is an ugly duckling. In order to fix the looks, I bought this skin. Once applied, the skin looks great! There is enough of the skin to cover every part of the ps3, even the bottom and most of a controller (comes with 2 controller skins.). It took me about 15 minutes just for the top part because it's the biggest part. Take your time and it will come out really nice. I posted some pictures of mine above.

I've had many system skins for various consoles in the past, and usually they are very thick and look tacky. This skin, however, looks like I bought a ps3 that came in an entirely different color. The skin had a lot of separate pieces that covered the entire system. All in all I count about 20 pieces. They also included 2 cutouts for applying onto your controller. The controller skins only cover the front of the controller, not the whole thing. The skin fits very well and I would highly recommend any skin by this company.

This skin is very difficult to apply, and if you start to lay it down incorrectly, you've blown your one shot to make it look nice. I'm sure this skin looks quite nice when applied with care and special technique, but in my opinion it is not worth it since there are so many other skins for your console that are much easier to apply and are much less flimsy. I would recommend that anyone looking for a skin for their PS3 get it from any other company that sells such skins.
