Leather Handbrake Boot Repair

Does anyone know how to repair the thin leather covering the the rear half of handbrake? A rough part of my fingernail caught and ripped it a little. It's a tiny tear in a very inconspicuous spot, but knowing that it's there is driving me crazy. I don't wanna replace the boot just yet as it's in great shape... Are there any kits or methods? Thanks in advance!

Rip? Like there's a hole in the pleather?

It won't be worth your time to try and fix it, if it's even possible. Which it isn't.

Hit up JPM or Redline and get a replacement boot.
