I recently purchased a 1996 Eagle Talon TSi (Two tone, Polar Green and the top roof / spoiler is Black.) This is my first post, I`ve been lurking for a couple of weeks for good ideas and pointers to really clean up the car.
The spoiler was faded / the paint started wore off in spots, so I found a cheap black spoiler off of DSMTrader.com (Parts classified) . Listed good condition (which it is besides shipping damage). I received it today and from shipping both corners (its boomerang shaped) are chipped to fiber glass and rough and a cracked. I know this might be beyond the scope of this site, but are there any recommendations to fill cracks / chips in for fiber glass? I am concerned something like bondo will break loose over time and I would be back to square one.
Attached are some pictures, and I am sure I can get Black touchup paint from a dealer.

I appreciate any help, and if this wrong for me to have posted I appologize.
