Where did you get the carbon-fiber that you used for this project, because the quality of it is very poor. I mean absolutely no disrespect, but it was the extremely poor quality of the carbon-fiber that caused it to shred and bur like that when cut by the CNC machine...if it had been higher-quality carbon-fiber, the cuts, holes, and counter-sinks would have been perfectly smooth, and both sides of the carbon-fiber would have been perfectly flat and shiny, not dull and rough/bumpy like what you used.

My personal opinion is, sell the current CF pieces to someone else to build a project out of, and cut new pieces out of high-quality carbon-fiber. What you need is 3k weave, bi-directional, glossy on both sides carbon-fiber. GraphiteGirl on eBay is the best place to buy CF...they lay-up their own sheets and do it the correct way, as well as have the best prices!
