Leather painting !

I have had my RRS since February this year and had a dirty mark on the drivers seat since the day I picked the car up that kept returning so yesterday I tried a stronger leather cleaner to try and get rid of it and the colour come off exactly where the dirty mark was but fine everywhere else. Dealer said nothing to do with us as it was a used car and wasn't picked up on collection day.
I now have to find someone in the Sussex area that can repaint the leather as I can't leave it looking like this.

Anyone ever had this done or know anyone that can do this sort of repair ?

will try and add a picture later as every time I try and post it from my photobucket it say photo not found when clicking preview.

Go onto Gliptone's web site they have kits to do car leather repair and hold all landrovers colours in stock. There are how to videos on the site showing you all the steps. I did my seat bolster in ivory and looked like new, just take your time it's not hard

Cheers for the advice 360 but I want it painted by a pro as tried these diy kits before and never been happy with the finish. I had to look factory when done so happy to pay a pro rather than waste money for me to Censored it up. 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

Apologies for a thread hijack but thanks for the recommendation. Just ordered a touch up pen which hopefully will fix the many tiny scratches on my passenger seat.
