Default Possible to fix?

Just bought a sir spoiler for $50. But it does have a small quarter inch crack

this is not the spoiler but here is where the crack is at. I kinda edited the pic to show you where.



Possible to fix around corners like that?

maybe if you are extremely careful and use some putty, or something to that effect, and do it just right. as for me, thats so small, i wouldn't even care.

Its definately fixable, but not really worth it. You could try with some fiberglass, but you would have to be good with bodywork to do it. Good luck if you try it

Heck, I probably wouldn't have notice it if I were to see the full car. It's so small, why worry about it? OCD maybe?

OCD? Obsessive compulsive disorder?

Lol, had that since i was 14 yrs old. Mine that as bad though.

Yeah, im **** about my car. Want everything to be as perfect as possible. But i mean, if it's fixable why not fix it. Going to take it to a shop tomorrow to see for myself.

I understand clearly and know what you mean. To be honest, I'm **** myself.

But if there's a major problem worst than that (i.e. the motor, tranny, etc.), I wouldn't worry about it as much til AFTER. Then finally fix up the little bits of things.
