Any Vynal/Leather Repair Kits for small cuts?

I recently got a cut on the black vinyl of my driver side door about 1 cm long. Can anyone recommend me a good toolkit to fix this? Thanks a bunch!

I had my dealer call in their guy to fix mine. I think you'd have much better luck letting a pro do this. Give your dealer a call, they have detail guys that they call in for this type of stuff....probably will cost you around 75-100 bucks.

I've got two rips in the vinyl on the driver's side. One is almost 3", and the other is about 1/4". I know that my car's 6 years old, but it doesn't have a whole lot of miles on it (35K), so I can't understand why it's wearing like this. Anything I can use to fix it?

An upholstry shop would put in a new piece of leather where it is ripping.

like TMK70 above said, let the pros do it. I have used them numerous times and I consider it money well spent. Look in your phone book under vinyl or leather repair or something similar. See if your dealership will give you the name of the outfit they use. Better if you deal directly with the repair guys than pay your dealer to do it for you. The cuts you show in the pictures are easily repaired. I'd pay ballpark $50 - $70 Cdn to fix those in my city.
