    Lots of fiberglass, hate, and some paint.

    It’s possible it is.

    Replace with painted new part.

    Obviously depending on manufacturer and location in the world: but repairing this is in most cases more expensive than replacing.

    That said with an inexpensive plastic welder (this doesn't look like fibreglass to me) and some strengthening/supports and bodyfiller this could be fixed.

    One could even try to fix this themselve. And you could use a decal to hide some dodgy work.

    Find a Big Rig Autobody shop and take it there.

    We fix fibreglass/plastic/mattan daily on semis so those guys are well versed for the repair you need.

    Have you seen those plastic welders with different steel inserts? They would at least hold it steady. If you plan on taking it off and fixing it
