Re the veneer: Here's a trick I have used in the past:

If you can remove the molding at the bottom of the set without making the problem worse, you may find that the veneer ran all the way down, so you might be able to carefully harvest enough of the "hidden" veneer to patch the missing pieces. I would score along the molding with a razor blade or scalpel so that the middle part of the veneer does not slit or tear when you remove it. You can patch the hidden areas from which you harvest the "donor" veneer with any scraps you have of the same thickness before re-attaching it.
