Yes they do make a few colors of carbon fiber. Also I heard you can have it painted with some kind of paint where you can still see the fiber weave like that picture.

Any color you can imagine, you can get it in a carbon fiber hood. The colored part is not carbon fiber (carbon fiber is only black) but typically another synthetic fiber, like kevlar or other nylons. There are a few ways to do it, some hoods I've seen use a weave that's black and the color, others use a layer of the colored fiber for the surface then carbon fiber underneath.
