Prusa 2.5 with Colorfabb XT-CF20 Carbon Fiber suggestions

Any ideas what should I improve. Filament is dried, 0.3 layer height 0.5 nozzle. Is this is or I could get a better detail?

RE:

The first photo in particular looks bad.  Very much like damp high temp CF material. You said you've dried it. At what temp? For how long? I would perhaps try to print it directly from the dry box.

RE:

aprox 6 hours at 55 temp, thing is I think its printing well just that the extruder seems to be lower than usual or extrudes more than usual. Because the first layer extrusion lines are irregular and fatter than from lets say PLA.

Lowered extrusion multiplier from default 1.05 to 0.98 and it seemed to improve the detail on the text part. What do you think?
