I swear to God I just replaced this laptop screen last year and it ran me a pretty penny. Admittedly I had this in a not too protected position in my car today and when I opened it up I noticed these two whiteish spots

Nah way out of warranty, and I could technically do the repair but my God, this assembly is intricate asf, fun story, when I broke a bracket for the spacebar to hold properly and realized I couldn't fix it, 3 different repair shops were unable to get the entire keyboard assembly to fix it.

Besides, MSI does good work, I know I'll get it back clean and looking fresh.just a shame, I have to get my cars alignment done so this'll have to wait

Eh msi, not bashing but hard to get parts for. I used to work for a repair shop for over 3 years. Often times you have to replace the whole top assembly to get replacement keyboard, cant just replace keyboard assembly.

Any who. Good luck with replacement! Sorry couldnt be of more assistance.
