Default CF hood repair

I have a small spiderweb crack in my hood, due to my own stupidity with a drill. Does anyone know what I can do to fix it? The crack doesn't bother me as it is, but I'm worried it is going to spread.

buy epoxy, and epoxy the entire underneath portion where the cracking is. that will get it to stop spreading.

Not sure that will work as it's the epoxy on the top layer that is cracked and I'm sure the cf is fine.

Were you trying to drill in hood pins/locks? If the carbon fiber on the hood isn't messed up and the crack isn't too big you can use any car scratch remover to get it off. All carbon fiber hoods that I know of come off the factory with some layer of clear coat. If you want you can also use a high grit sand paper to take out some blemishes then re wax to add the gloss.
