It is riceeater. PM him. I am sure he may be able to help you or send you in the right direction.

Search his user name as he has many CF posts.

i'd be happy to fix it...is it damage to the gel coat or to the actual fabric? The second will be much more difficult to fix.

ya, that can be fixed. Will take fair amount of sanding. Has the whole hood been sanded??? It looks like its got a pretty milky finish to it. Who is this hood made by??? the carbon is wavy and I almost guarantee you some of that damage was there before shipping, you can see it was not properly sanded in that corner in the first place. Where abouts are you located???
