Varis carbon imperfections
So I just bought a varis hood and it has quite a lot of imperfections.
Apart from a lot of scratches/rough resin, which should come out after it gets clear coated, my biggest issue is that the hood has 6-7 small dimples in the fiber. The resin on top is smooth, but the fiber looks broken underneath. Is this acceptable/unavoidable?
From looking at photos and comments I kind of expected Varis to be the best and have perfect finish so I'm a bit disappointed.
I've attached some pictures, but the reflections and lighting make it pretty hard to see. It's a lot more visible in person, so that may have contributed to my expectations of getting an almost perfect part.

Waiting on my cf bumper to arrive from varis so cant speak for them yet, but I just got brand new chargespeed carbon side skirts and they had imperfections and scratches as well.
From my experience with any aftermarket carbon fiber stuff regardless of brand, there's always imperfections, which is a shame because as you stated I would expect better from companies such as Varis etc.
