Fisheye front element replacement part

I scratched my fisheye while skiing and need to replace the front element. Have any of you guys done that before? Where can I buy one? It's a 72mm rebranded Opteka fisheye for my Panasonic HMC150. I bought it off vx1000market.com and they no longer exist. I thought maybe sending a message to Century Optics to see if they sell front elements? But my fisheye isn't a Century so will the front element fit on my fisheye?

You'd probably have better luck finding another fisheye than a place that'll replace an element. Even if you did, a new fisheye would probably be cheaper.

new lens time. Try and sell it for super cheap on craigslist to try to make up funds, but otherwise you are not going to find a replacement..
