Yes, it is possible to repair it, depending on how deep the damage is. If the carbon fiber cloth is torn you will not be able to make it look the same. If the damage is just in the resin coat then that can be repaired, it's very similar to fiberglass repair, you might take it to a body shop and see what they could do with it.

resins a cheap repair, i'd think... its just a matter of sanding it down and pouring on a new coat of resin.

torn fibers, i would assume it'd be expensive.
