help with birds nest coral

Received a green birds nest coral from SWF.com yesterday. I dremeled off the stem of the black plug they are mounted on, leaving only the base for epoxy/ gluing. When I added the glue to the plug and placed coral in tank, apparently, the plug had a small hole through the bottom. The glue went down the center of the birdsnest and hardened before I realized what happened. Immediately pulled it out and began to chip away the cured glue. This morning I noticed the areas that had the glue are now a lighter shade than the rest of the "body". Will/ Can these parts come back or should I save what I can?
thank you for any advice!!
