Cmike if you going to paint the lip this should be okay, but must be something got on top of it. Did other pieces have this issue? I really looked very closely to all the ones I have. None have this.
6 FRP version came in and only 2 left!

It was just the middle piece. The side pieces were perfect. There isn't a clear coat on it and they do scratch easily however. It's not a big deal, but maybe just having primer for future products would be better. It was in the box the whole time and nothing was sprayed on it. It looks like moisture or the paint didn't spray properly in that one area.

yep, it looks like it was painted while water was still on it. it's not a huge deal as long as the primer is sound. just sand off rest of the black paint and part of the primer, then re-primer and you're back to square one.

your bodyshop will know wat to do.

I was thinking of doing the prep work myself. I've never done it before though. What grit sandpaper should I use? what primer do you recommend?
