Hi guys, so here's my problem: the leatherish arm rest on the wifes CRV has torn due to wear, so she is threatening to use yes DUCT TAPE. Does anyone have any cleaner/ better ideas? Thanks in advance.

They now have colored duct tape, might blend real well.

What year? Looks like a replacement cover is really cheap

Replace it or tape it. I'm guessing you've let it go too long or she wouldn't be willing to use duct tape. FIX IT FOR HER!
 
Let's try that pic again ..

Yes you're right.

Hey it's the armrest that's on the door.

That may be a separate part-piece as well, but as I'm not familiar with the vehicle, but perhaps due to some mechanical common sense, it might mean removal of the door panel.

Again, such may be sourced from the web. Most know all too well that if you walk into a dealership you will pay dearly for the exact same part.

To me, and my philosophies have always been along the lines that a vehicle is sort of like a house, that as time passes, this breaks, that goes bad, worn out, ugly, and as things begin to add up, in very short time what you have yourself is a real piece of junk on your hands.
 
Yes omg how do I get those? I'm not that good with the puter.

Hey, but next it's going to be the seats or carpets etc., etc..

Bet you wouldn't let it happen to your car, You've been a Geek for almost 5 years and probably took care of your cars way before that.

Happy that somebody pointed you in the right direction.

It's an ebay listing, so you can probably enter some of or all of the verbage seen here in the ebay search box to find these (and perhaps others as well)
All usually take credit cards and paypal nowadays.

If you should feel the job of replacement of these parts are something you'd rather not personally do, and perhaps not be at the mercy of high dealer labor costs, many times shops who install Auto Alarms, and as well Window Tinting have good experience with Door Panel removal they do such every day in their jobs, and will quote you a price up front.

It's tough handling "life" and then trying to maintain two cars. But I'm sure you all know.
