Video Game Systems

I just bought it used today for my psp 1001 ( and yes I bought the one for the 1000 series), and it just wont close. If anyone else has this case have you had issues closing it, and if so how did you resolve this issue? Im not really looking to break a psp over a POS $5 used case.

Also not 100% sure, but it may have to do with the replacement faceplate I put on, which may have made it bigger. The guy I bought it from "claimed" it was oem, thus I paid more, but their is no sure way to know. I didnt really want to have to change it, but I bought off a guy for $40 used because the faceplate was cracked ( and later to my excitement the analog stick was broken as well), but thats kind of not the point of the question
Here is the case:
