Aero spoiler

Is there any way to repair the aero spoiler when split? My GTA roller didn't have a hatch on it when I bought it, and I found a hatch from a GTA in a boneyard but the spoiler is split. Is it worth fixing or just save up and get a fiberglass one from like G&T or RamAirHood.com?

If it's split, then most likely it's already gone. The rubber spoilers are getting really hard to find in good condition, let alone keeping them in good condition. And why GM thought rubber was the way to go is beyond anyone on here.

Any pics of the damage? Someone might have an idea how to fix it.

I would try filling the cracks in with a rubber caulk and then sanding it smooth
