Default cracked door speaker cover (mesh) - repair options?

Hi all -

passenger door speaker cover on the door panel got hit and is cracked. Speaker still works fine. I could be wrong, but my understanding is that the cover is part of the door panel itself. So to replace it would mean replacing the whole door panel, which is very costly and I'm not interested in doing.

Anyone know of a workaround to repair or replace it?

thanks!

Door panel is indeed only sold as an assembly so either find used or bite the bullet. Another option might be to repair but without seeing it can't say if that is possible.

Here’s a pic from an angle

Here’s one strait on from a distance. Really looking for a way to repair as opposed to replacing the whole panel
