cosmo that looks like a decent fix though id have made the spar double and sub spar all from one piece with grain running length ways.

perhaps carbon fibre mat along the spars and rigid CF tape along the top of the spar all in one piece.
I tried to make the spar doubler and sub spar all one piece, I couldn't make it happen. The new spars are well tied in tho, and the grain is running length ways for maximum strength.
All tied in to the top skin with the carbon cloth and a thick slurry made outta the poly resin and carbon towings. Hysol also used thru out. and the ribs have also been doubled and tied into the skin. I also made an epoxy/carbon slurry and filled the critical areas on the original spar.

I really don't know what else I can do, apart from build it from scratch.
