My spoiler is detached and a little flappy, I assume as a result of the collision on the opposite side of the truck before I bought it. When I flex it as far as it wants to go, I see one broken clip and it's obvious that the tape isn't sticky anymore.

What do I need to do to reattach it? I assume I can't replace this clip and slide it back on, because it looks like it slides sideways, such that all of the clips have to be slid into at once?

So what's the procedure, peel the spoiler away from the rest of the length of tape, replace the tape, replace the broken clip(s?), slide the spoiler back onto all of the clips at once while keeping the top away from the tape, then pressure along the whole top to adhere to the tape?
