    looks like it is a crack in the resin and not all the way through so you MIGHT be able to apply a bit of resin to the crack and then buff it smooth. Hard to say w/o seeing it in person though

      i say you could try what chuck said. also try calling the company that made the hood and ask for repair instructions

      PM me for:
      Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
      Diesel repairs or performance products.

          If you still want to see the CF, maybe you could figure out a nice way to have the cracked parts painted over or something? Just an idea.

                  Sand it, paint over it.

                  Once the resin is cracked, there's no coming back unless you completely sand off the damaged area, and apply new resin, which will ruin the look. That's how we do it at work, but then the fiberglass pieces always get painted.

                      Yeah, thats what I was afraid of, oh well that just means I will most likely buy a seibon when the time comes, but I will have to wait a little longer.

                      I was just thinking of painting over that part but I think it would be hard to make it look good with that extensive of cracking. I would just as well paint the whole thing and that just wouldn't be the same. Oh well. Thanks for the help.

                      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
