leather seat rips

my wallet has a money clip. the leather on the tip wore away (i guess im just too rich!) revealing a sharp metal clip beneath. well, that clip left skidmarks of tears in my drivers seat and its killing me to look at. its not bad, certainly not deep, but id like to get it fixed.

i did a search and saw that some people recommend taking it to a shop, others recommend a product called 'leatherique'.

i found this one online: http://www.leatherrepairkits.com

looks like itll do the job for about 50 bucks. thats a lot!

anyone have experience with this or similar products? can you recommend maybe a more suitable kit for such a small job? thanks guys.

I would go to shop to do the job and ask for a warranty.
