Fixing Active spolier Lip

[Sakey]

I'm currently refurbing an active spolier lip, and spraying it back to black. (Complete noob to this! )

 

Unfortunately it has a crack in it!

 

I was wondering what is the best way to fix this (products and methods etc) or is it even worth attempting to fix it?

 

Here is a couple of pictures of the crack

Reinforce with fiberglass on the back and then smooth over with filler. Thats what I did on my last one with similar damge.

as above but you need to stop the crack or it will grow again

so drill a small hole at the end of the crack this will stop the crack carrying on

you might want to strip the paint back where it is crazed too or they will show though after a short time

or even chase them out a tiny bit then fill
