Default Can A 2011 LS460 Front Seat Piece Be Replaced?

I recently purchased a pre-owned 2011 Lexus LS 460 AWD. I have attached a photograph showing several cuts and scrapes on the rear left side of the right front passenger seat.

Does anyone know is it possible to remove the piece/panel that the white arrow points to? I would like to purchase and replace the damaged piece myself if possible.

I would appreciate any help and information from any of the forum members.

Thanks,

Bill

it can be fixed not sure if it is vinyl or leather but it can be fixed by an professional. unless you want to dish out the $ then the dealership can handle that. I would take to get repaired first.

Thanks for your information - should I take it to a detail shop? Where do you recommend I take the car?

Thanks again!

Too bad you aren't in MD, there is a guy here that does these repairs and does excellent work where you wouldn't be able to tell that those tears were ever there. The leather armrest on my driver's side door was worn pretty bad and he came by a couple days ago fixed it for $100 and you can't even tell. He does all of the dealerships in my area. Ask your dealer if they have a guy that does these repairs.
