You could order some wire from somewhere, or you could send it to me and I could replace it for you.

Or read the article I had on this site explaining how to do it yourself.

It's a pretty easy fix man. If you're not confident in bending the loops, practice a few times before putting the components on. Then go for it. If it's messed up, you can always try again.
