You can get heavy gauge, 3" wide 'Body Trim Tape' at any of the 'Discount' Parts chain stores. I bought some at Advance Auto Parts in Florida about a year ago, and this past weekend, bought some at O'Reilly Auto Parts in Seattle to replace where it had cracked and crumbled on my daughter's '90 240.

You need to measure and cut carefully (I first cut a newspaper template which I attached to the black material with scotch tape), and ensure that the old material is completely removed, for which I used naptha (lighter fluid).

My total investment was about 2 hours on Sunday, and under $10...looks stock.

Good Luck.
