Exclamation What to use to fix broken spoiler??

Anyone know what I can use to fix a spoiler that has a broken pedestal? Epoxy, fibreglass, glue...??? It seems to be made out of foam or something. Any help or experience would be appreciated.

The spoiler seems to be dense foam surrounded by some type of rubber. I had an end hanging just by the rubber (the foam was completely seperated). I put some epoxy in there, taped it together in the correct position using masking tape. Let it sit for a while and it seems to be pretty solid. Good luck.

I used an epoxy to fix my cracked pedestal. Held up well until a clown at a car wash insisted on trying to lift the hatch via the spoiler.
