I bought a full set of panels when Andy was running Saturn. I was never told that the finish would be perfect. There were some marks on some panels but to me that was obvious of a hand made part.
On a side note I work in the aerospace interior industry, we use a lot of hand laid up composites which cost astronomical amounts, and guess what ? The quality is crap, and that's from a host of different suppliers.
Alga, I think if thats the sort of quality you are looking for maybe you should be investing 20,000 plus in a Caterham ?
