Secure your cargo. Here's why....

I was cut off and had to slam on the brakes, my seats were down, stuff slid forward, and a 2x6 put this small hole in my door - anyone know how to fix this?

They used to sell repair kits that had sort of a colored goo that dried to the right consistency, kind of like thick touch up paint. I DK if there was a way to recreate the texture, but I'd think color-coverage would make it very hard to see. Don't use a sharpie or a regular marker - it will look great for a short time, but then the inks break down into purple/red or other funky off-colors that look terrible.

There still are DIY vinyl repair kits. They use a textured piece that you press into the vinyl paste to help provide a match.
https://www.fibrenew.com/vancouver/ should be able to repair it.
