Any long-time users of the carbon fiber model? Wondering if it scratches/wears easily.

BranCrackerI ordered the CF model with cash strap back in late 2014 and have used this wallet everyday from Dec 2014 to present. Looking at the pictures, it looks like they changed the CF model since mine has a shiny gloss over the side panels while the ones on this drop don't as much. Since those are glossy, I do have quite a few superficial scratches, but you have to look at the right angle to see them. See pics attached, the white bar is the reflection from my desk fluorescent light. (pics are lightened to better show detail) The cash strap has loosened a bit but to this day, i've never had any money fall out. I've carried single bills in the cash strap and it will not fall on its own unless I push or pull the bill out. Still i'm careful when pulling it out of my pocket when I have a bill or 2, holding them in place with my finger. I rarely carry cash but when i do, it suffices. I do need a new strap which would alleviate some of my concern and I wanted to get one but their site was OOS for the longest time. If you pick up the cash strap, pick up a few extra cash straps while they are in stock. See attached pic of cash strap. Only gripe for the wallet was that on this side the screws came off, i've lost 3 screws. I've had more come off but i would be lucky and find them in my pockets after the fact. I ended up putting some blue loctite and that's kept the ones i have now in place. Just an fyi. Other than that I LOVE this wallet! I've used it daily for about 2.5 years and its perfect for my use case. I recommend it and the CF looks so nice. I'm considering getting another CF model if the panels aren't glossy this time around. Hopefully someone can confirm this. lol this turned out to be a little long winded but I'm glad I purchased this wallet.
