Mounted to substrate? going to be a nightmare lining all those panels up! I would have went with sintra if you had to do mounted panels.
Mural looks good!
Can I ask what PPI/DPI you set the file up at?
Also, dial in your bit settings for EVERY different material and keep a spreadsheet of it.
That way you know what speeds everything runs best at on everything, this will save you wasted material, time, and bits.
We use a dry-erase board here to keep track of our settings.
Over time our routing...
These are some of the ones on Amazon that our router operator loves using:

These are also good, but not as frequently used here:

Honestly, it looks like your heads are either mis-aligned, or on their way out from all of the photos posted.
If you're running that high of a pass count your image should be crystal clear.
Only other thing would be to load in some premium material and see if the problem persists.
I have had...
I'm the template guy, I use scrap Phototex to make custom expanded templates.

Share a photo of what the concept is (why it needs to be so custom) and what vehicle you're doing and we might have some pointers for you.

You want to use transparency settings to get the appropriate black to red fade. In Illustrator you will put the images (grayscale) over the red and change the transparency to something like Multiply or darken, etc (whichever looks better).
In photoshop you can make each image a duotone image...
FWIW, We bought the expensive bits for years, then switched over to buying most of our bits off of Amazon for a very small fraction of the price. Still stock & use a few expensive bits, but most of our regular everyday cutting is done with bits that cost around $2-3 each and work just as well.
I would recommend routed 1/8" polycarbonate, reverse 2nd surface prints on clear, with white laminate (backer). Regular standoffs will be fine, MBS sells a variety.
Last time I had to do what I think you are doing, I used knifeless tape and kept it about 1/4" outside of the old graphics, then put the sheets on and pulled the tape.
We make our own striping here to match any department's particular pattern. Gerber Omega software and Gerber printers/plotters are a specialty niche combo for work like this. They will print and plot ANY length of striping perfectly every time. Especially effective if you need something like a...
Last time we couldn't find a 2080 color from any of our regular US vendors we ordered from this link above, and they had it, shipping was also quick from Canada.
Sounds like you need some new distributors, you're getting screwed on prices. 54" 3M Wrap Vinyl & Laminate costs us around $1100 for the pair.
Also, you need to make 1 or 2 profiles for your printer and your most common vinyl. Then, use those profiles for everything. You may have to hire out to...
