I scratched up my rear spoiler

I hit my garage door while it was going up. I have been trying to touch it up with white paint and then wet sanding it down but the paint doesn't seem to be sticking.

Has anyone touched up a spoiler with success?

thanks

Why are you complaining? This is the perfect opportunity to get the JCW wing!

Could always give the John Cooper motorsport spoiler a try....

Have and photos of the damage, it may be something that a bodyshop can do?

I will have to look into the aero kit spoiler. The scrach is about three inches wide. I hit the mailbox slot because I didn't wait until the door was all the way up.
