need help on spoiler repair...

I need some advise on how to repair the mounting point for the spoiler on our max's.... Basically, one of the mount points (where the screws go) broke off the leg of the spoiler and I really do not want to purchase a used one at the moment before trying to repair this one.
What sort of adhesive can I use to securely place the spoiler back onto the trunk?

BTW - both ends have lost their anchors as well. Feel like just putting adhesive to the entire spoiler...

Tks in advance.

Jae

For the ends buy new anchors at the dealer.
For the screws that broke off. If there still in the spoiler break them out so that theres a hole and use these.

Well take the base off the trunk and epoxy the base back onto the spoiler.
