ouch. were you trying to remove it?

Like Feyd said, you could have a body shop fix it with body filler (bondo) and paint it the color of the car. I don't know of any way to fix carbon fiber to make it look new again though.

I wouldn't mind a painted spoiler if you replace it. GL.

You can sand the crack out carefully is a "V" wedge and apply more resin to fill in that but it will never look the same.

I agree with the others that you will need to paint it afterward since it will never look good again; even with the repair I mentioned above.
