well if your getting it painted.. fix the ripples. You'll just pay more for the ripples to be fixed. But your painting it like said so you don't see the nature of carbon fiber material.

sounds like your body shop doesn't want to paint it period.
geedog had his painted with no problem. so maybe your body shop doesn't know how to work with CF or something. but i would say they are working against ya.
tell them to smooth out the ripples and paint the SOB and stop beoing kitty's about it.

Take it to WCC and see if they can do for you. Free labor you pay for the materials.
We have done a few car for insurance companys with the permission and the teachers. Body abd Paint teachers name is Gary Sobbry
