Pictures of the cracked wing/spoiler...

Okay, these are a little out of focus, but you can still see where the cracks started. I tried to fix them by filling them in and then resanding them back down smooth. After that, I just painted the lower bottom section flat black to cover up my work. About 2 months later it started to come through again in the same area on both sides. Before I re-installed it the second time, I even used 2 sets of rubber washers, 1 inside and 1 outside the wing between the contact of the metal shafts. That's 2 per side! They act like shock absorbers for the vibrations. But none of that still helped. It can still be fixed with some effort, but at this point, I just don't like any thing that bolts directly to fiber glass. This stuff is way to brittle. So buyer beware!
