    If you're concerned, just swap in the original silver keyboard just to be safe.

    If it was the same one then i would say no, but since it looks different than you might. Depends on the tech really. If you can, switch the silver one back.

    It shouldnt have anything to do with it. But it might raise their eyebrows enough that they refuse service. It really depends on the guy. I know my regular guy is really awesome and wouldn't care, but they are all different.
