I think animal puke is more likely than fireworks but, at this point, both seem plausible. Yes, more pics and closer shots might help.

Edit: Your best bet may be to take it to a local body/paint shop and get their opinion.

That looks like some major acid burnt from whatever it was man. My theory is you gave Kal El a wrong look and he spits a loogie at your car. I suggest look into some Kryptonian car wax


But seriously, I've seen painted oem spoiler on eBay for $135 shipped
