Place new button (old button shown) with its outside face on a piece of tape (so you can hold it) and then apply a very thin layer of crazy glue to the raised lip (only to the face that will touch the "black plastic")

Carefully tape around button area, and then apply accelerator to black plastic (only) right before you are ready to apply supper glue to new button

This is the primer and top-coat that I used. Worth noting, last coat of the "shimmer" needs to be a heavy (wet) coat.

filled in with some "medium-strand" bondo and coated with some high-build primer

Close up of grill damage. I thought briefly about buying a new or used replacement, but this one was was already modified for Laser countermeasures (so fixing the damage seemed to make more sense then buying another and cutting it up again)
