I've done the same thing before. Just remember, learn from it, and move on.

Yes. I'm thinking about replacing the palmrest cover and just forget about it, it's a pretty cheap replacement so I don't really care. Unless the person doesn't care about having those bumps in the cover.
And to the other guy, those were the original screws, I just forgot which one was which (and just assumed every screw on the back was 5mm).
