I_H8_Pistons is on a distinguished road
I have re-cleared a carbon fiber hood before it wasn't this bad but it had some sun damage.

Wet sand it with 600-800 grit sand paper, then move up to 1K grit sand paper wet sand. blow it off get all the dust off the surface to be sprayed. You can go to a body shop, sherwin williams get them to mix you up some clear coat to use in a spray gun (which you can purcahse a decent one form home depot that will do the job). with the hood off and on low stands lightly coat the hood with the clear should take bout 2-3 good coats, let it dry for at least a day then buff it with a high speed buffer keeping the speed at 1k to 1,500 rpm light compound, last just wax it and boom.

Unfortunitly i don't have any pics of the hood i did i will see if can get them from the kid i did it for but it wasn't really hard just take your time.
