clutch wearing out

My ACT clutch is starting to wear out.
I want to save some money. Could I just buy a new pad, instead of the complete kit?

Pressure plates go bad too. Happened to my last clutch. I can tell you from personal experience that it's really frustrating to swap out a clutch only to have it continue to slip. It's worth the extra $350 in parts to get it done right the 1st time around.
