Because the butterfly mechanism is so delicate, any attempt to remove the key cap will end up damaging the key further. I personally would not unless you are a miracle worker. You should be under warranty still considering it is 2018 and this is a 2017 model so take it into an Apple Store and have then look at it.

@ajcooke01 Congratulations on the 1K Sorry about getting on you are couple of weeks ago, I was not aware of your age at the time. @nick got started around here at your age too and has become one of the most valued contributors to the site. @evan does iFixit still do the Ts?
