Looks like friction causing delamination. friction caused by material compression onto the rigid plastic of the subframe, the heaver the person... the sooner the damage. If you have this panel replaced privately then have it done in Leather and sand/file the edge of the hard plastic so that the edge is rounded..

I brought one of these kits when seat went on a different car of mine a year or so ago and it was S**T, don't waste your time and money. Get it repaired by a pro. |

Each to their own skills, some can use products successfully, other just cant get the hang of them so label them as Crap.
