yes there is


ive delt with fiberglass and carbonfiber materials before (surfboards) and carbonfiber hoods are simply the carbon fiber sheet(extremely light, black cloth)and a chosen mix of clear drying epoxy resin

1. find a good brand of clear drying epoxy resin (unbeknown to me)
2. clean off the damaged area, alcohol works best
3. apply the PROPER mixture of resin and catalyst("drying" chemical) to your cracked hood
4. sand the area smooth, and be very careful, also use a high grit paper, something very fine.
5. sand a polish ur fixed hood, also look into clearcoat materials to make it nice and shiny to match the rest of the hood, no one likes a blotches of sandpaper marks

thats only a starting idea of what youll have to do to fix it, i dont know the extent of the damage or how ur actuall final product will look, look for other advice on how to do it perfectly
