Go to www.eastwoodcompany.com and enter vinyl into the seach at the top, scroll to the bottom of the search result page & hit previous page, scroll to the bottom of that page. They sell repiar kits for $25 (item 40013). Not a bad deal considering the cost of replacing that pad new.

Hope that helps

I glued mine and filled in with expoy resin. Then painted black. Looks OK but texture isn't a good match. Worth trying.
