Original message:

Well I wasn't too worried about it since I thought I could get a lip
repair kit. Then I find out that the die broke and ther is not enough
financial demand to make a new die. Also that the aftermarket ones don't
fit well. Might just see if I can cut a piece off the bent one that would
be enough to fix this one. I'll let you know what comes up.

I understand that the bonnets can frequently be had from some Moss resellers
that are returned by purchasers that had a difficult time fitting them.  I
suspect that some sort of tweaking must be done in order to make them fit
properly, perhaps some whacks with a rubber mallet in the hinge area.  Often
times they may be painted or primed already, and for a significant discount
from the Moss catalog price.

e-mail me, I may be able to connect you with someone who can find a new
bonnet for you.
