This is actually the original gbc lcd screen. The reflective layer is embedded inside the glass so can't be removed. This is simply a light and polarity trick I discovered while fiddling with the transflective film of an old PDA on a tip from another GB Reddit user. Can't remember his name or I'd mention him as well.

Did you use any particular method to remove the metal frame? Just careful prying or some solvent?
Just move slowly and carefully. Some kind of rubbing alcohol may help since its just adhesive strips holding it on. Happy to share, enjoy!
