The entire body is carbon fiber. What happens when some *** bumps into it in the parking lot and ***** up a body panel? According to
MBUSA(mercedes of america) as of right now the car will be sent back to McLaren in England for body repairs becuase there are no body shops in this country equipped to repair the CF properly.

There are plenty of people who can fix CF, and it can be fixed stronger then
if it were metal panels being fixed.
CF was being used on things long before some shmoe decided to put it
on cars.

I was in no way flaming you, just want to make that clear 
If I had a $400,000 car and the choice to get it fixed locally in under a week
or to ship it half way across the world and hope it doesnt get more damage
or mis-use there and back I would go for the local option, no to mention how long
the whole process would take.
