Lucky it's ABS plastic. Lots of prep, ABS plumbing cement, and cheap clamps. Made it somewhat sturdy first by using a soldering iron with an old tip to "hatch" the cracks. That kept intact long enough to glue and clamp. It took a lot of bending of the reinforcement piece to match the contour of the side of the frame. Used a pair of pliers over the kitchen stove. Don't forget to key both surfaces.
I made templates out of thin cardboard first and made sure to keep them. Both doors need almost identical repairs.
