Nice work. I'll have to try this myself on my cracked spoiler.

You guys using straight stitches? Some of these look more like back stitches or whip stitches. I'm a little new to sewing

It's really easy to do. You are literally putting the thread through existing holes.

Thanks for the DIY everyone. Just a quick question, I'm pretty sure you guys are taking out the orginal stitching first but I just wanted to ask. So is everyone just taking out the stitching from one side first or taking it out as you put in the new stitching?
