What's Under There?

Powerdubs, Thanks for the advice. I am embarrassed and ashamed to share the following (File this one under "Ask first, act second"): I saw a dippling in one of the right side caps and thought that I had somehow smacked the cap with my jacket or the battery tender cable. It looked like just a decorative cap, so I thought I would just pop it off and attempt to smooth out the dimples from the backside-WRONG! It looks like this cap is ("was" now Sad) spot welded/soldered to something that sits within a rubber gasket. When I went to pry it off, I broke the cap from the two spot welds. Yeah, I frigged up. Do you see any risk of me driving it to the dealer like this, or should I trailer it there? Is this going to be an expensive repair/replacement? ConfusedBlush
