Fix crack in trim ring at ignition

The little plastic trim ring that goes around my ignition (PUSH written on it in the below pic) is cracked.

How do I repair it? Can I just epoxy it?

The ring keeps popping off due to the crack.

I'd hate to buy another one if I can just repair it.

I've always wondered how you can repair automotive trim plastic. Is it possible?

Super glue, jb weld, gorilla glue, etc. Any of those will do the trick. The hard part is not getting it all over the front where you can see it. As for hiding the crack once it's glued, no way to do it except cleaning it all up and painting it which will not match the surrounding plastic. Could look cool though!

Super glue or JB weld like T-Man said, not a fan of gorilla glue because it foams all over the place
 
When I bought my truck that ring was missing and I think it was pretty cheap to replace if I remember correctly. Maybe like $5. That's if you don't want to repair it yourself or becomes to messed up to repair.
