Only way that can be fixed is by reclearing it. The clear is failing/has failed. I would just take it to a chop and have the spoiler repainted. It should not cost more than $50-$100 depending on where you take it to.

yep, you're losing your clearcoat. Had that happen to my 1990 car on it's spoiler too (odd ain't it that it's the spoiler).

I concur That is a prime example of "Extreme Clear Coat Failure"
You will need to wet sand the surface smooth as a babies behind, and then re-clear the spoiler.
looking at the amount of damage you already show you might as well have the wing sanded down to the primer level repainted and cleared. This step would get rid of any discolorization from where the clear has peeled and where it has not, if you look closely where the clear is gone the pain color has already faded to a light pink, so you are in to a paint failure stage also.
Sorry Dude

Weight is the enemy.
You might be able to polish it to minimize the appearance of the oxidation (it's pretty severe oxidation BTW) with some 2.5, but if you're selling the car you should probably just leave it the way it is so the buyer knows what they're getting into.

I'll second that loudly!
