It's just a torn boot. Yours is very minor as well. You sould see mine...half the boot on every single strut is completely gone. Definitely not something to worry about if you ask me. I work in a shop and '04 cars come in looking worse than that

my boots looked much worse than that when I replaced them along with my S-Techs and Illuminas. new KYB boots on there as to not risk the brand new shocks. you look fine. but if you have a weekend of free time and looking for something to do, it wouldn't hurt to replace them. but i heard the OEM ones are poor quality and would be better off putting in the KYB ones. but by then, you might as well replace shocks too.
