    They may not break but I wouldn't count on that but will be stressed for sure.. I'd have them repaired if you were going to use them.. That's just my opinion though..

    Safest way is to replace them. Talk to a LFS about ordering a new top trim piece for you.

    Best Fish in Milwaukee is where I would go. Not sure where you should go since I don't know where you live.
