Seat cushion or skin? I scored some black skins from a member who switched his skins to red. Search ebay etc. for used.

You can fix it with some filler and dye.
look up leather seat repair on YouTube. You will be amazed at the results.

I may still have my grey skins. I changed them out last year. They are in a box. I'll check them tomorrow to see if they are in good enough condition.
