Well that sucks!

There used to be kits available to repair vinyl, I don't know if they are still available or not. You might try Eastwood.

There's really nothing that works like new. I sew and cover in vinyl on the ones I get and customers seem to like the seam along the front. Call and talk to your local upholstery shop and he may have someone that do a repair. It will last a little while.
