Default Rear Window Defroster ???'s

I just picked up an Ej8. Appearantly, it use to have tinted windows. I noticed that there are about four lines on the rear defroster that have gone bad. Im assuming it was damaged during the removal of the tint before I got my hands on the car. Anyone know how to fix this issue or do I have to replace the entire rear windshield?

There are kits you can buy at auto parts stores to "draw in" the lines. A bit spendy but I know having a working defroster is worth it.
