the laquer has lifted,cracked and jumped clean off along the top of this spoiler so what would be the best way to sort it out guys?

would rather save it than buy another as I have the time and would happily pay the cost of one in materials.

saves the landfill and another oem part that if it isn't NLA will one day become so.
