Question 2009 Camry fuel door replacement

I just filled up, and I noticed that one of the hinges for the fuel door is broken. I've been having some problems with the door for a while where it was rubbing when I'd open or close the door. One day it magically was fixed. I believe the gas attendant may have fixed it for me, but ended up causing tension when he pulled/bent it. that ultimately caused it to break.

Do I have to replace everything? I can take a photo if needed, to show where it's broken. I'd like to get it repaired/replaced before the other piece breaks and causes me to lose the door. Any help is much appreciated!

A few options:

Check Ebay for a used door of the same color.

Ditto for auto salvage yards.

New doors are available from third party part makers and the dealer. The door may come primed, not painted.

Look under "2009 Camry fuel filler door".

Someone might be able to silver solder the break. The paint on the other side may however be discolored.
