Neil, thank you, that is much better! For some reason, I didn't realize that
just setting the LAF in NbPreferences is all that was required.
As for filtering, in validate() I just call
UIManager.setInstalledLookAndFeels(flatLafs) where UIManager.LookAndFeelInfo[]
flatLafs contains just the 2 FlatLafs from
UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels(). It works, it just shows the 2 LAFs in
Tools-Options-Appearance.

No, it won't. It'll run before NetBeans sets up the look and feel.
Which is actually what you want.
I suggested you look at filtering the installed look and feels, and
correcting the value of NbPreferences laf property in a validate().
This needs to run in a module that depends on FlatLaf.

No, it isn't ideal - you can get weird artefacts by calling
UIManager::setLookAndFeel. Better to let NetBeans look and feel setup
handle this for you.
Best wishes,
