Some of the microclips fail to secure the lid properly

I'm not sure if I accidentally got a bad lemon, but I did get one of the black color options for my new 2018 15" MacBook Pro Retina and was disappointed to find that microclips/fasteners in the middle of the front and back edges of the top cover don't have a firm grip. Or rather none at all. It looks like the lid is completely loose. I try to open the top cover , by putting my thumb on the spot, the cover is easy to lift and remove, which surprised me because my friend has the same one for the same MPB model, but in stealth clear, has a tight clasp around the perimeter and the front and back clips perfectly match the edges of the top cover.You'd think both color versions are of the same mold, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Or does this random manufacturing defect only affect the one I have? ver, and as shown in the pictures here the microclips work perfectly and the cover fits snug and tight edge to edge. And I have to say I love everything else, the quality, the texture of the finish, the silicone pads, the shape of the cutouts for full access to the ports, how thin it is etc. Although for the price I would expect it to be out of all viewing angles flawless and guaranteed to be 100% flawless.

Pros
