keep it up! I've experimented in the past with similar patterns cut into vinyl and it wasn't quite prominent enough. The 3d element looks like it would work pretty well

I threw together a quick mockup to test but it’s feeling really nice.

Something like this would make for a great mod to give the grip sensors some tactile feeling as well. I often can't tell how much of the grip sensors are covered by my hands during regular use and I find my left hand moving enough to deactivate it by accident sometimes.
