This worked. I just needed to append to that file in the %post section.
Below is an example that tweaks the games spin.

# Custom games spin that defines rpmfusion and livna repositories
# and includes some media codecs and tools for playing dvds
# and colossus, including a desktop icon for it.

%include /usr/share/spin-kickstarts/fedora-livedvd-games.ks
