I read some where here that the "newer" palm rest ,a less bridle plastic should be an upgrade ,mine is one of the first badges and totally cracked to pieces and i didnt even use the pbp on a daily base or that much .
i did the hinge modification to lessen the stress on the plastic mounts...but you should be as well concerned about those tiny screw heads forcing themselves through the medal base when torquing those screws . As well not the best metal quality/design ,very thin .... already happened on mine installing nvme
(Maybe tiny vinyl washer between screwhead and bottom cover would help )
il have to replace bottom and palmrest/keyboard to put it back in prestine condition..lol
