One side of my spoiler has come loose but its not immediately obvious how it all comes apart. Are there any pics beyond PET of how its constructed or has anyone taken one apart?
 
If it's the hockey stick at the side then the pig-nosed bolts will be rusted to the nuts and the plates that attach the bolts to the hockey stick itself will have come unbonded.

I bought some MasterBond MS Polymer Bodyshop adhesive from Wayside Adhesives on eBay along with a dozen speing clamps, I bonded the hockey sticks back on with plenty of this and they've stayed rock solid on track days and autobahns.
 
Its the actual spoiler itself on the passenger side.
Its not exactly waving in the wind but definitely loose and does rattle.
I'll investigate further but the fixings do look a little the worse for wear.
 
I had a similar issue and couldn't get the old bolts out, just spinning round connected to nothing. Easiest option was getting in about it with sikaflex or a similar hard bonding rubber adhesive. Mine has been ok for years since that. Well you are at it check all the hockey stick fixings and lower lip spoiler fixings and give them the sikaflex treatment also! Not a concourse approach but it is almost impossible to see if done correctly.
