I love my XPS 12, but it's not aging very well. Get rid of the sticky rubber pads, enjoy this fantastic keyboard again

I love my XPS 12, but it's not aging very well. 

Dell unfortunately use a soft touch coating that disintegrate with time and make the laptop all stick. Especially the rubber pads on which the screen rest when the laptop is close. As the disintegration progress the pads deposit a sticky trail on the screen, and feel gross under the hands.

Print these pads in TPU for better results. You need 2 times the small part, 1 big part and 1 MIRROR of the big part.

They just drop in place and I haven't felt the need to glue them down.

EDIT: v2 files add 0,5mm width to the longer part of the piece, filling the gap between the pads.
