Lol! Looks Like the one you are calling the left side (2nd picture) also has a crack in the grill area, also the corner is broken off. Pristine?

Thank you for pointing out the corner is broken. There is no crack. The plastic texture is causing a shadow in initial photo, and they still had moist spots after washing them. Maybe "Almost pristine"?
Thanks

Perhaps I should not have said "easily."

I considered making a wood or cardboard mold for the damaged areas and use an epoxy plastic putty and dremel. Could make repair pieces with a 3-D printer, or cutting pieces from another damaged grill. Not easy on time, but doable.
Thanks

Please proceed and post some after pictures! Be sure the grain in the wood mold matches the grain in the plastic.
