Hello friends, 
I made two pieces of carbon fiber by the hand lay up process + Vac bagging and I'm having problems with areas as per the picture. Defects such as air bubbles and dry regions.
I am not using Gel coat because I will use clear coat when finalizing and I do not use tacky spray because it is a cosmetic piece.

I'm using material / resin ratio in 50:50 and vacuum at -28 in.
Where can I be going wrong?

it also looks like a bit of bridging in the corners,you need to ensure that you prod the material with a suitable 'dibber' to force the material into the corner as the vacuum bag will not be enough to force the material into tight radius.
