If there is enough meat left on them, you might be able to just build up what's
missing with filler aluminum weld. Otherwise, just cut them off and weld some
more aluminum on, either 5000 series marine-grade, or 6061. You should be able
to whittle it back into shape, aluminum isn't that much harder to work with
than wood.
