just get a soldering iron and some plastic that feels the same, and litteraly just melt the crack line and melt a bit of extra plastic in there. very, very easy. I used an oxy welder to heat up a screwdriver and just use that the first time.

You need a GC center grille badge PM me i will send one your way.
