Fiberglass help
So I got my stock spoiler last week. UPS did a great job of dropping it right on the corner. Now the corner is chipped. It's not huge, but if I just smoothed it out, it would definitely be noticeable. Anyone have any suggestions? Figured I could just get some resin and gob it on and sand it to match, but didn't know if that would hold up? Any help is greatly appreciated. Here's some photos.

Can't tell from the pics how deep the chip is.If its fairly deep,I'd cut some small pieces
of FG cloth dipped in resin/brush more resin when pieces are fitted to the damage.
Sand it down after it cures.Apply some Bondo to low areas.Sand again,feather edge
into the area.Clean/prep and prime.
Thats what a body shop would do.Also,the company that made the spoiler would do
this to cover up any imperfections before priming.
If the chip is pretty shallow,just use Bondo not resin.

Thanks for the input. Reprinting the spoiler is fine since it's the wrong color. I'm just worried that with it being such a small area, it would be hard for it to bond to anything and it would eventually chip away.
