Fiberglass Rear Wing?

I know fiberglass body kit is easy to crack, how about a rear wing(spoiler)?

Your wing/spoiler takes so much pressure, I don't see how fiberglass could support it all.

I actually ordered the 3pc spoiler, and I brought it to my autobody shop last week to get it painted. Apparently it gets put on by an adhesive strip, is this normal?

ahesive???? must be strong stuff then. i know honda's oem spoiler and most spoilers use BOLTS to make sure the spoiler doesn't move.

actually all [or a majority] of spoilers will come with adhevisve strips
thats just so it acts as a spacer/cushion and the 2 wont scratch up each other
mine is held by 4 bolts then an adhesive strip...
i watched them install it, like 20min...drill thru my trunk n bam it was dun...
