my m50s have recently started to rip along the top of the headband, i was wondering if theres anything i can do to prevent this from happening in the future or happening to my ear pads. 
Here are pics of the damage

I'd show you the condition of my M50s, but it's NSFW. The thing is a tank. The plastics and padding will disintegrate to nothingness before the drivers die. I'm thinking of cutting off the headband and buying a generic replacement.

I was searching the internet and found a thread from people in Asia that looks like a great solution.. But i dont know what material they are using..  Take a look, if you know, let me know
