Is it possible to buy Yahama matching vinyl to fix a few seats?

I was looking at a used 2008 AR230 that has a couple of seats with ripped vinyl but most the interior could get buy with a good cleaning. It is possible to buy the original color vinyl to allow me to do smaller repairs? The top of the seats is that blue 'aligator print' color rest is a light grey or off-white. It Looks like there might be some damage to the blue areas but most of the damage is in the grey areas.

I am just trying to figure out if I can do smaller repairs or I need to to budget for a full re-do of the vinyl which I would guess would be in the 3K range.

www.jetboatpilot.com or greatlakesskipper.com ... I found the upholstery fabric for my 2013 242LS at both of these companies.

I shopped around local upholstery shops and was quoted $4K-$6K to do the whole boat. It was more economical to go to my local Yamaha dealer and buy only the replacement cushions/parts that we absolutely needed and install them myself.

I had my seat cushions all redone by a local sewing shop and they were able to match the vinyl exactly!

Just replied to another post on this. I have a 2008 AR210 and had 2 seems torn 50%. I took them to Dr Vinyl and they repaired both for $125. Dr Vinyl is a franchise but not sure if there is one in your area.
