Plastic connecting earpad with headband broke

Plastic connecting earpad with headband broke
I don't know how to name that part but hopefully pictures will show what i'm talking about. It is only their 6th month, so that sucks. But I would appreciate any help or suggestions how to fix that

ANSWERS:

by now the OP probably has the fixed already. Just for completion sake, there is really not much you can do. This is part of a design issue and Skullcandy is most likely not doing anything about it. You can try to make a bond out of thin metal and strap it around the broken part then use some small sheet metal screws to attach that band. Adhesives will most likely not work since there is movement and stress on the part. Of Course you can always try and get a set of headphones that is broken on places other than yours and then harvest the part needed from those.
I've got mine replaced under warranty at the store where I bought it (PC World/Currys)
I know that this is late but there is a bigger solution to fixing this.
Good Morning Guys.
Same happened to my headphones after 3 (!) months. I have an idea to print this part on 3d printer and add some additional metal parts to make it more "bendproof". Also I wil make a "dangerous" part a little bit wider for additional safety. The only thing: I don't know how to disassemble the part where metal band puts into this part. I see that it can be disassembled but I.m not sure how to do it right =)
