It’s still a 100% no regardless.
We turn down services when we see these damages, we had one that doesn’t look as bad, but when send to be assess by a carbon repairer, it was actually bad enough that it need immediate repair.

Yea when looking at the photo I think it’s gone through 2 sheets of carbon and is a lot wider than I would expect from wheel rub. Out of curiosity do you know ball park what carbon repair costs for this could be? Might be worth talking to the guy about it and negotiating a lower price and get it sorted.

Been riding a frame, and a fork, that lots of folks would say were 100% no, for at least ten years... $0 carbon is a great deal if it doesn't kill you.

I'd say it depends on the price and weight, and whether that black layer below the grey is paint or carbon. I'd like to see a better pic.
If the frame is like 900g or less, a bit of a missing layer there might be something you'd miss. But if it's say 1.2kg, it's probably got plenty to spare.
