Anyone have any luck repairing them? I have all my covers but thinking about epoxy, or even using a 3d pen to do some repairs to mine.

I've done plastic welding to repair these. A good heat gun or soldering iron can do it with some scrap plastic. I bought a plastic welding kit for those, bumpers, and other projects. The repair is better than most epoxies.

Here's a video of the repair. A bit long and tedious. It's easy to get the idea just skipping ahead through most of the video:
