it is possible to fix.........but as for weather it'd be cost effective to do so?
you'd nearly have to get hold of an XR grille to do it right

given to you?.........well the price is right.
keep an eye out for the XR grilles, to graft in the missing section.....they can be had reasonably cheap - especially if they're cracked

just keep scouring ebay

Thats an SSV GTXR Bar

Worth $700 new.

Even if you do fix it, you will need the genuine XR headlights to match it.

You could cut the quad light part of it, making it easier to repair, and then use it with you standard lights.

This is the better idea. Those quads look poxy compared to the standard XR ones.

Plus its EB GT, EB...

Not sure if thats worth getting fixed or not, but I suppose if you got it for nothing and it costs $300 to be fixed, you've still got a good front bar for $300 that you can either try and get lights for or re-sell.

Also, I've got to say something, 'cause I notice it all the time, but in your sig you have "custom par shall shelve"....it's actually "parcel shelf"...

Anything is possible, you could take it to a few bodykit places or panel beaters and see what they say...but upon closer inspection it seems that bar is pretty cactus :S
