Easier to fix or replace?

So my wife sent me this pictures from after my kid was playing in the truck. Would it be easier to fix it or should I just go with a replacement?

there are 2 steel studs mounted in the floor it should just snap back on .if the bottom of the plastic pedal is worn/broken you can just order another and re use the chrome

If you get the kid 'fixed', you won't have grandchildren. If you replace him, they wouldn't be related to you. So I'd just get a new pedal.

(In all seriousness, just get a new pedal, they're cheap and fairly accurate in reproduction).

Heres my luck.
I bought new studs and peddle and one side of the peddle broke at the hole just pushing it on.

O well they are cheap enough too get another one.

Im not sure if quality is better from differnt vendors or not but mine came from the cali. Truck shop.
it seems like a harder more brittle plastic than the oe peddle.
