Tell them to fix it. You did instruct them not to paint the insert part, right?

Damn that sucks, I would have left the CF. Hope this gets fixed Mike. Goodluck!

wet-sand till the paint is gone and then buff back to shine... it will look like new. take your time, it will work

I'm pickin mine up today from EuroRev and I literally called Vince when I saw this. He confirmed the left the insert unpainted! :)

As for ur situation, I would have them redo it! That's assuming you communicated it to them from the beginning. Its their fault and they need to fix it, simple as that.

I've found out recently, that communication is key w/vendors! Better to be a PITA and get it done properly, rather than going thru what ur going thru. Sorry bro!

Hopefully I'm wrong but I understand once you paint CF, you'll have issues removing the paint.
