The edge of the insert just ends. It does not have a rolled finished edge, as in the stock insert. Nice glossy finish.
The resin and CF workmanship leave room for improvement.
At two locations, a 1/8 and 1/4 inch long white surface inclusion is visible. Dirty mold before lay up.
The top edge of the scoop has a number of resin rich milky areas that look like a slight ripple in the CF. These form a dark shadow since the CF does not come to the surface in these areas. The vendor claims of vacuum bagging to press the CF into the tight corners did not happen.
A top view of the scoop shows the bottom edge of the opening is not a smooth line.
I would call this insert a SECOND. If I made this and pulled it out of the mold, I would cuss at my misfortune, but I would make another and not send this one out the door. ...
Sure, I will give you a call.

Well, I tried, but the phone is disconnected.
I will try e-mail. Not holding breath.
