You can purchase another aftermarket spoiler...

I'd get to scratching and sanding.
At that price I am glad I spent all day yesterday sanding Lol both the nose and spoiler are now in primer and ready for a guide sand then colour, both the nose and spoiler had 31 coats of paint.

Thank you very much, Its never going to be a show car i just dont have the time money or skills but I am quite good at making a presentable usable classic if that makes sense.
In the past when I have bought my project car/bike it stays in the garage till fully done, with this one its 90% there and there is not much summer left, so going to MOT it and enjoy it, the car has quite a few small daft jobs to do nothing that will cost a great deal so the car will be a rolling project for the summer then pull it of the road for winter and tackle some of the bigger jobs.
