Anyone got a space LCD shell?

So on Saturday I set my HVX rig down to talk over some shots with a director. The set was dressed with dozens of lit candles and the cam made contact with one of them. Zoiks!
My LCD cover melted a bit right where the DVCPROhd logo is.
Amazingly, the LCD continues to perform flawlessly and we completed the shoot.

So I am wondering if anyone has had to replace a broken LCD that had a good shell? If so, can I buy the plastic casing from ya?
 
You could always contact panasonic and request the part, or contact one of a dozen reputable dealers who could do the leg work for you :) You know what they say about playing with fire...
 
Update: ordered an LCD shell from Panasonic for $58.
In the meantime, I've decided that the nickel-sized melted depression looks pretty cool, kind of like a meteor scar on the belly of the Millenium Falcon. It could make a great identifying mark if this camera is ever stolen.
So I am just going to save the new LCD shell as a spare, or in case I ever sell the camera.

A bit of wear makes production gear look more professional, right?
