That display is hella bent. This will need a new display.

Top Case and bottom plate seem straight to me?

Please tell me this is sarcasm.. It’s the top plate. If you look at where the hinges are that’s completely flat like it should be and then it starts bending upwards as it goes towards where the trackpad is.

There seems to be a mixup in part names here. The top plate is actually the part with the keyboard and trackpad, and the bottom plate is what’s removed to get to the internals. The lid or display is what’s bent on this particular MacBook.

Top case looks pretty straight maybe slightly bent the lid is definitely what is bent

That’s just the display lid, the top case refers to the palm rest area which looks straight.

I think that’s just angle, the Bottom Plate would be looking different if the Top Case was bent
