Problems with Carbonio Airbox

Anyone else having problems with their windowed airbox lid? Mine has started to go cloudy in the corner as if it is delaminating. Thought it was just on the gel coat to start with but that seems fine, seems to be under that. tried contacting Carbonio and they have blanked me so far...

I was waiting for the rain to stop, but hey it's England and I might die before that happens...

Starting to go grey under the gel coat, and no reply from Carbonio to date.....

Ian, from my cabinet making and polishing days, that looks just like what happens on a lacquered finish when moisture is trapped under the lacquer, usually caused by heat drawing it through and then it gets trapped under the surface & is a result of poor preparation and maybe even the quality of the sealants and lacquer, I could tell you how to remove it on an antique chest but don’t think my method would work on your car!!

Yep, that's what I am assuming has happened but is disappointing given this was quite an expensive piece, still trying to contact Carbonio for a comment...
