Fix (or prevent) a broken Rock Band drum pedal

After shredding open that giant box in the corner, unearthing an entire rock band of peripherals, and gathering a motley crüe crew to rock alongside, you had your first experience with Harmonix's Rock Band. Somewhere, in the middle of "Wanted Dead or Alive" no doubt, that flunky you call a drummer put his heel straight through your totally authentic bass pedal with all the force of a thousand Tico Torreses.

Not to fear, as the evidently limitless eBay marketplace has the perfect solution! You can order the $15 Pedal Metal, designed to fix your broken pedal with an intoxicating blend of diamond-plated aluminum and self-tapping screws. Bass pedal still fully operable but you're not the sort to leave that to chance? Consider the carbon fiber variant (pictured), double the price at $30 but guaranteed* to handle the rhythmic stylings of your good pal, Lenny Leadfoot.
