I'm guessing that is CF wrap, but it doesn't look that bad. I thought about doing it for my RPF1's for autoX so I don't have to look at the stupid axle nut.

yeah it's the cf wrap.

so....... i redid my brakes this morning in the driveway. finished up, cleaned the wheels, and put the car on the side of the street for no more than 20 mins. found this. has to be a kid's bike handle. don't know what else it could be. also i found a bunch of black parallel lines/marks on my rear left rim. im like wtf, i just cleaned it. i cleaned it off without even seeing the bike handle like dent and rubber marks. week of facepalm for me? ._.
