You can also use sheet aluminum and rivets to make new ones. They don't have to be perfect as they are hidden and all they really do is keep the dust and spray out. Aluminum will never rust and be come brittle.

You only need to cut 2 pieces for each one. Cut one long one for the top and short sides and one for the inside side. Leave enough material on them to form riveting flanges. Use the plastic wells for a pattern. Seal it up with Vulkem or Par-Bond
