Torn CV Boots... Replace boot or entire CV?

My recently purchased 2000 986S has two torn inner CV boots. I'm not sure whether I should clean, repack the grease, and replace just the torn boots or replace the entire CV joint.

When I last drove the car there was no clicking or noise from the CVs at all, however I know that it has been driven at least 1500 km with damaged CV boots. Given this distance, and the fact they're completely torn, I'm leaning towards replacing the joint.

What does the rest of the forum think?
