Default 149 upper grille broken... options?

I dropped my hood while taking apart my 149 and broke a section of the grille under the headlight, about a 4" section is missing. I saw one sold on eBay for $24 plus shipping. I have been looking around for a replacement but these seem hard to come by. I wonder if/how this could be fixed. What material is it? It's not cast iron like the lower grille. Or if anyone has an extra one laying around they might part with. This isn't necessarily a "want" ad.

A good welder can fix it
But, will likely cost you more than a replacement.

Yep, it's a really common part and should be easy to find.

I found one with a hinge that needs a new paint job (perfect for my project) for $44.99 shipped. Thanks!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
