We can't guarantee anything because you could get the same design engraved on another MacBook somewhere. However, we typically do keep records of designs engraved by client so if you need help proving it is your MacBook we will certainly help if we can.
Does laser engraving my MacBook void my warranty?
You'll have to ask Apple that question. Since laser engraving is a surface effect it is our opinion that it should have no affect whatsoever on the warranty. However, we can not promise and do not warrant in any way that laser engraving will not affect your product warranty.
