Ok, I emailed Sikaflex & included the pic of my broken spoiler section for advice on which of there products would suit my needs best, well there reply was not very convincing lol:

Stephen
i have attached details of Sikaflex 221 adhesive sealant which is available through SIA Abrasives.01422 313300. This will give a flexible seal to the spoiler so may not be the perfect solution.Possibly a more reigid adhesive would be more suitable.
Thanks
Brian

Is it made of fibreglass? Why can't you just fix it with fibreglass and body filler?

We use the sika range for work materials.

Sikaflex would not work as the guy said, too flexible.

I think you are overlooking the simple solution here, araldite - an epoxy two part adhesive.

I wouldn't use Sikaflex to repair the hockey stick, but it should be fine to re-attach it to the car.
