Default Leather entry way pieces .. where to replace?

i have some scuffs and a small tear in the screw-in verticle leather piece that leads to the rear. Im not sure of the part name/# of this piece, but it is in the rear part of the doorway around the "B" pillar. It can get damaged if someone steps out/in of the rear seats.

What do these pieces cost to replace in leather?
thanks

I'd check with Rob Budd at 928 leather shop.

Search this forum for leather repair DIY's and check out the systems by Leatherique and Surflex/Color-plus. Depending on the tear, you can repair it and re-dye the panel yourself or take it to a decent upholstery shop and have them do it for you.

I'd be surprised if that part was ever made in leather. Are you sure yours is leather?

When I was doing my color change from black to gray, I replaced that part (with vinyl of course). You need to be really careful removing the old material since there's a layer of foam padding underneath it, and you need to preserve that.
