I have bonnet from.my beetle.In general it have no frame underneath, but it have big kind of lip around.
I think about two options.
First lay up more layers in that area around.
Second lay up CF tape. 
Any suggestions what will give better result?

The L shape lip will certainly add a significant amount to the stiffness of the part.
