Your only real option is to sand it.... Strippers may damage the fiberglass (or may not, but you won't know until too late).

Home Depot has stripper specifically for fiberglass ...... with
polyester resin. You don't want to use regular paint stripper on
polyester, but I don't know about the epoxies. The fiberglass stuff is
the safer way to go although I found it kinda puny on imron.

Hey Wayne C
 
You don't need to remove all the paint C just sand it down nice and smooth with 400 grit/wet and then put some white primer on and paint.  Or C if you are repainting with the same color C just sand and paint and clear coat C if applicable.
I had to fix my wheel pants and this worked perfectly.
