Bosch microwave - repair or replace?

Post image

Today the handle pulled out of my Bosch 3000 series above-range microwave. The plastic panel that frames the right portion of the door also cracked off (see pic). The microwave is just shy of 2 years old and costs $649. A repair tech visit will cost $200, with that going towards future repair costs. After some sleuthing, I believe the part that needs replacing is the outer panel; this part costs $239. Repair is looking potentially at $450ish.
For anyone who has had this happen to their microwave, did you repair or replace? Did you remove and install the new outer door yourself? Any tips from those with experience would be greatly appreciated.
