I can see you have the issue with the screen coating of your MacBook Pro to be "peeling" or dirty. I had this problem on my MacBook pro 15" mid 2014. To remove this use mouthwash (the simple kind, not the fancy fruity taste etc) to remove the anti-glare coating that is deteriorating. Using Isopropyl alcohol does not work.

Very thorough. Thank you. Would have been helpful to state the actual model and year. Please put in the comments. Thank you.

Very poor repair, The bottom cover screws , 3 of them have a different length so please be mindful of original location. That plate you did not put back is there to protect the trackpad(especially when batteries start to swell). When these batteries swell they prevent the trackpad from clicking. From an electronic repair point of view no anti static precautions were followed. Also users please be aware that the Macbook Pro batteries don't always come out easily especially in this model, they are usually stuck down very well.

heya~ thanks for the comment! i did not know that plate has a function 😂 although we did have to send this particular laptop out for another repair when the battery bloated the case open.. the reason the battery came out so easily was because I opened it previously to change the speakers, so the glue was already worn as for the anti static precautions, I do have to say, I live in a country where static is actually quite rare (even rubbing a balloon on your hair doesn't do much), so its not common practice here to take anti static precautions, things like mats and wrist straps are not commonly found. Maybe I should have placed that as a disclaimer but thanks for pointing it out!
