Right now my VIS carbon fiber hood looks like crap, its faded and has cracks all through the gel coat. I would love to replace it with a regular painted hood but dont really want to spend any money on it, so I was considering refinishing my current hood. I sanded a test spot and I had to sand through pretty much all the clear to get rid of the cracks. The problem is that he gel coat/clear (whatever it is) is real thick on my hood and I'm not sure if sanding through all of it will sacrifice structural integrity of the hood. Not to mention it will probably take me a week to sand the whole hood. So what should I do...leave my hood looking like s**t, or try and refinish it?
