When I pulled both seats for a good vacuum i noticed driver side seat bolster was cracking about 1/8" above the stich line.
I decided a little glue in time may save the seat. At least until I go for reupholstry.
So, I cleaned the area real good and masked off.

Then I mixed up a small batch of epoxy and applied a thin coat. Make sure it's thin but not so thin as to fail.
Before the epoxy drys remove the masking tape and allow it to cure.
Then remask the area, completely taped down where the stitch is but raised where the paint/dye needs to be blend
Then I sparyed the area with 4 thin coats of Replicolor Leather Dye (good thing it's black interior).

Remove tape and masking before the paint dries.

This is not a permanent nor perfect refinish but you can avoid a rip and lokks fine unless you are really looking for it.
