ROFL - I know what you mean.
Actually, the bubbles are less of a problem than you think. Since the CF is opaque, you don't see them.
I got to (had to) apply new decals on one of my SeaDoos a few years back. They were relatively large vinyl like the CF sheet you're considering. A few knicks with a razor blade on the larger bubbles and leave it out in the sun for a day ... like magic, no more bubbles.
IRT your black nuts ... I have no response to that.
