Do I cut into the base to get the edge and glue it all together, or do I just glue it how it is?

That's definitely fixable by a quality shop. Expect to pay some dece coin for it though. What they'll probably do is cut out the damaged portions of base and edge, repair the core with epoxy and fibreglass if necessary, and then put in a base patch and new section of edge.

Probably not worth attempting a DIY repair i.m.o.

Nah that kind of repair is kinda fun and necessary to learn if you ever are gonna get serious about maintaining your own gear.
