Water in my Extreme Spoiler

Got water sloshingin my extreme spoiler ... seems to be just in the top though.... by lifting the boot, the water drips out, where the horizontal part joins the vertical part- so I guess this is where it is getting in
Just done a quick search for threads on how to fix ....
is it "put up with" and periodically drain ..... if so, what is the best way?
Or is there a simple fix?

First fix that pops into my head is to remove spoiler and allen bolts on side, split & then seal the three parts together and refit

Do you recommend using some sort of sealant?

Aye, any auto sealant would do, maybe try and get a colour that matches your paint or a clear one so any excess isn't obvious. The centre piece should still be a tight fit to the uprights so take car when splitting apart

Drill a small hole in the bottom. The spoiler doesn't come apart easy as its not held together with the allen bolts.
