Epoxy for Trans Am spoiler

Two of the bolts holes are stripped. Is using an epoxy to secure them into the spoiler a good option? Or is there a better option? I think the spoiler is fiberglass. It’s for the original spoiler on my 84.

Re: Epoxy for Trans Am spoiler

I would epoxy in a couple of nut sert's from a place like McMaster-Carr. Not just epoxy to hold the bolts on. Did this on a friend's BMW spoiler 3 years ago with 0 problems. Still holding as tight as when was done
