Default Passenger seat bottom tear-leather

Anyone know where i can obtain perforated leather for my 08 is250 driver's seat bott0m--color cashmere?

I went off on vacation, and found a 4" tear in my leather upon my return. My daughter's claiming ignorance--sure!

The car's too nice not to get the panel replaced, but i certainly don't want to replace it with a whole driver's seat cover kit--$1700+ list price.

Help!!!!!!!

Look in your local Yellow Pages under "Automotive Upholstery". Shops that specialize in the trade can likely obtain the material in that color and quality and redo that section of the seat. They do that type of thing all the time.

It won't be cheap though, I can tell you that. But $500 to $600 would certainly a lot better than what Lexus wants for the OEM seat cover.

Good luck, I can only imagine how you felt when you first saw it.
