Default removing paint from clearcoated carbon fiber?

hi, i have a fiber images carbon fiber trunk that was painted black to match my car, i am looking to sell it now and a buyer is curious if there is a way to remove the paint without damaging the weave.

it was gelcoated or clearcoated at fiber images... i think the imperfections were just sanded down and a primer was apllied. does anyone know any products or methods to safely remove the paint?

probably no easy way of doing. sanding teh paint down all the way and re-clear coating is the only way i could think of doing it. Striper will kill it. Its cheaper to buy a new CF part than sanding and re clearing it unless the person does it them selves
