Bezel for WaveShare LCD

I ordered one of these: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1941701
It is typical 3D printed finish - could do with sanding and polishing, but I'll leave that for now. The main recess for the LCD was too short for the LCD, by about 1mm, so I very carefully sanded the WaveShare PCB and the plastic lugs right down. Now it was just very tight and had to be helped into the bezel with a couple of shims. Very snug fit now, won't fall out.
The bezel doesn't cover any of the on-screen buttons. There's a backing plate that has 2 screw-holes to fix to the front which I think I'm going to use to fit the whole unit to an enclosure.
