My partner dropped his MacBook Pro and damaged the top case

My Problem

When arriving home from a holiday, my partner's MacBook Pro was in a soft bag that he left on top of the kitchen counter. As he went into the garden, the bag collapsed and spread it's contents over the flag-stone floor - including the MacBook. Result, a bent upper case.

My Fix

Like a dream! Ordered the parts from ifixit.com, plus an ifixit t-shirt so I could feel like a pro completing the work. The parts & tools arrived in phenomenally quick time! I'm in the UK, and a combination of ifixit.com and FedEx made it feel like the package arrived in hours from the States.

Case replacement was easy as pie. All done, no hassles. Thanks ifixit!

My Advice

Don't leave your MacBook in a soft bag on the kitchen counter!
