Default Interior trim repair kits?

My car has a small cut like a V shape in the upper door trim.
Is there a trim repair kit available anywhere that would help fix the cut and match the colour?
The inside is coded SDZ which I believe is cashmere for the seats. No ideas on the colour code for the door caps. They are a darker/greyer colour.
Any links gladly appreciated.

Have tried this type of repair on other cars. Three levels, 1. repair the bit that's damaged. Never looked right. 2. Reupholster the door. Looks great, but a pain in the butt and you might need to do everything so it matches. 3. Replace the door panel. Cost/benefit would suggest (at least to me) that buying a new door panel might be your best bet.

I used this on one of my other cars. It worked pretty good. https://www.leathermagic.com/leather-repair-kits/
