T-Top Roof - Replace the Rubber from the Window?

Hi!

I have a little Problem with my Targa Roof.
The Glass Parts have this rubber thing hanging over the windows of the doors normaly.

As you can see on the atattched Picture, it is damaged and now is the door not closing very well, because it takes this rubber thing in between the window and the body of the car.

I have no idea what that rubber thing is called, where I can get it, or how I can replace / fix it.

For rubber

For plastic

I prefer the plastic myself because it holds it's shape and does not distort. I also do not see it deteriorating like the rubber with time.
