Evan,
If you are up for a little DIY, it is a fairly easy project. I cracked a spoiler in two on a custom P/U truck. Bought a repair kit from an auto body supply store. The kit included the fiberglass mesh and bonding agent. I simply sanded the spoiler down, applied the mesh and covered it with the bonding agent, both front and back. Within an hour, it was ready for final sanding. I could not tell where the crack originally was. Then take it to a body shop and have it painted. I'm not a body expert, but it turned out OK. Even if you screw it up, you are no worse off than before.
Incidentally, my aerokit spoiler is covered with spider cracks. Hard to keep them off the pavement.

Evan:

I ahve not been reading hte board lately, but I now see that you have both temporarlity lost your car and damaged the bumper. That's definitely adding insult to injury. But since you have gotten your three bad things out of the way, then I am sure that you will soon be the proud new owner of those black wheels you wanted. As for the front end, I have not seen a Techart bumper in person, but pictures make it look a bit higher in the middle than others. Might that work for you if you were to get a new bumper?

Regards,
Collin Porterfield
