Is the spoiler already painted? If it's already in paint and just needs a colour change then you'd get away with keying the original paint and spraying over that. If the spoiler needs areas repairing like cracks or deep chips then spraying it in primer is advisable.
Personally I'd use plastic primer as it'll stand up to any flexing the spoiler may do.

You using rattle cans or 2k? If you want a good finish you're best off taking the spoiler right back and starting fresh, You're bound to get a better finish then.

If its in primer you could just rub it down with 1200 grit to get it nice a smooth to save you repriming it. or has it got bad runs etc?
