You could also check with the service advisor regarding repair options. Before the E400, I drove a Lexus LS430 -- 15 years and 157K miles of it. About half way through that time span, the driver's arm rest (on door panel) cracked and tore. Since it was no longer a "late model" car, the service department offered to have their "vinyl guy" repair the armrest. It took two tries to get it to my satisfaction for surface and color match, but for years after that repair, and even when I sold the car, the repair was fine. Invisible, couldn't feel it, stayed fixed. Only cost me $125, compared to something like $700 for a new panel, too.

just keep checking eBay for salvage part, gray leather is much harder to find so it could take some times for the right one to pop up, but they're going for well below $200 so it's worth it,
if you're really lucky you may even come across just one of the cover for sell for under $100
