The first PlayStation 5 owners have already made it black with the help of improvised means
The detachable bezels on the PlayStation 5 give you more freedom to customize the look of your console. Previously, one of the third-party manufacturers tried to sell these attachments in different colors but was forced to scale back due to the threat of a lawsuit from Sony. In the meantime, individual users do not wait for the items to decorate the set-top box to go on sale. They independently change their appearance.
The first thing people came up with was to repaint the PS5 and the DualSense controller black. This was done by a Twitter user under the pseudonym SEAKAEdotcom. He removed the plates and painted them with a can of matte black paint. The result was very good, as noted in the comments. There you unsubscribed player under the pseudonym JonoHimself. This guy did the same thing, only with the PS5 plates he transformed the DualSense.
A much more interesting way to improve the look of the console was used by a visitor to the Reddit forum under the pseudonym Hawkijustin. He applied Plasti Dip liquid rubber to the side panels, which is often used to change the design of individual elements of the car. Thanks to the aforementioned chemical, the PlayStation 5 also “disguised” itself in black.
And the last of the so-far existing options for decorating PS5 was shown by a user of the Reddit forum under the nickname King_Acer. He applied vinyl to the exterior panels of the set-top box, which is often used to protect the paint on cars.
