OK, thanks for the information.

First i am gonna take my chances in repairing...
And if it does not turn out nicely i wil make it as smooth as possible and make a entire new mold for the part.ure

I have something to add:

Since i never had a broken piece of carbon fibre to take a look at i really have no idea ....
But the cured resin appaers to be really thick ... 
I am thinking its the way for the manufacturer to make parts ( wich dont need to be as strong ) 
cheaper to produce?



here is a other picture, mayby its more clear for you guys ?

     It will be a gelcoat on the top of the part, so won't be affecting the strength of the part at all.
