Default Hood - carbon fiber - repair clear coat ?

Paint it car color, so much better than running around looking like the typical ricer civic.

I brought it by a local autobody shop today about reclearing it or even painting it the same color as the car and he said he wouldn't touch it, he said he's never painted cf before and didn't want anything to happen to it
