Managed to scuff the carbon fibre mirror cap today, it's not bad but I wondered if anyone had a solution to getting rid of the scrape on the clear coating? Pic below:

Try a filler polish like autoglym super resin or radiant wax. Should cover up most of it.

That should polish out, do you have a machine polisher ? If not you can buy a kit that fits a drill but have to be carful.

Don't have a machine polisher, I got a fluffy drill bit which I used on my exhaust so it's black now
 
Just try polishing my mate.

The top layer of carbon fiber is called gel coat, it's basically hard resin, just use any scratch remover plus elbow grease and it will comes right out.
