Default Put an original ss spoiler

I just finished installing an original ss spoiler i was looking for. After finding one on ebay i bought it and when it got here the corners were damaged in the shiping I was pissed but with a little time and effort i was able to fix the problem. I didnt use fiberglass i used bondo which i now its not the best idea but i had never done this before. I dont have any before pics sorry guys but i do have the finish product let me know how i did. I had my Uncle paint it so i saved some money.

looks good. i bought an original gm spoiler and i still had to to do some work to get it to sit right on the deck lid. the posts wouldnt sit flush on the decklid so heres what i did. i bolted it up and marked with tape where it sat. then i put foil down on the decklid where the posts go and taped it down. then i sanded all the primer off the posts and added some usc duraglass and then put it back on so the posts where on the foil and then bolted it down. eventually what i ended up with is a perfectly contoured mold to my decklid. i added a quick coat of evercoat glaze to smooth it out and sanded it and now its ready for primer.
