Need replacement not sure what it's called.. Weatherstripping maybe?

Hey,

So I just got the car painted, have most of the interior back in. But one piece that looks bad and I haven't been able to find a suitable replacement is the weatherstripping stuff that connects to the plastic piece that covers the window frame inside the car from the t-top down to the dashpad. The weatherstripping stuff on mine is faded and cracked.

It's not really a weatherstripping, it's more of just a piece of rubber that was glued onto the plastic trim piece.

I tried jsut removing the strip, but I don't like how much of the windowframe shows with it removed

anyone know what that piece is called, and if anyone sells a replacement?
