Hi everyone,
The trim piece (part #6846077) that sits at the top of the door and covers part of the window is warped. It is not the entire piece, but just the rubber sleeve that allows the piece to be fixed to the door. You can see the picture here:

The part that is warped is wavy (in the picture). The problem is that I went to the dealership to see if I can replace the rubber insert and I cannot. I have to buy the whole piece. I don't want to do this because the color of the new piece will not match the other trim pieces I have on the car (due to fading over time). Is there any way just to replace the rubber insert? (the rubber piece looks like two windshield wiper blades that have been sandwiched together. I went to PepBoys and they don't have anything like this, so I am at a loss.

Thanks!
