Lens cover broken Ricoh GR iii

Hello, my name is Victor, I'm from Romania, last night I made one of the dumbest things in my life,
on my Ricoh had a skin, ripped it off and also a JCC filter, no problems with the skin taking off, but when I got to the part to take down the filter I dont know why I didnt stop and think twice.. wait should I use hot air, i forced to take the filter out and the lens cover mechanism popped out..

and now it looks similar with this Lens cover broken : ricohGR

I emailed a local service, but from what I heard they are price even with this small problems.

Now I feel better with all the stupid things I have done!
That looks like an eBay parts camera now, unless a service centre can repair it.
