A RADIO FRIEND OF MINE GAVE IT TO ME FOR PAYING FOR THE SHIPPING SO WE GOT IT AND WE HAD TO REALLY PUT OUR AUTOBODY SKILLS TO WORK HERE WE GLUED WHAT WAS THERE BACK TOGETHER AND REINFORED IT ON THE INSIDE AND THEN THE MISSING PIECE ON THE SIDE THAT WAS COMPLETELY MISSING WE REBUILT THAT WITH PLASTIC BODY FILLER (BONDO) THEN SHAPE AND SAND THE  LOUVERS BACK TO MATCH THE ORIGINAL LOUVERS IT WAS A CHALLENGE AS YOU CAN SEE BELOW........
