Default Pls help, where to buy rubber molding around headlights

Hey guys

The black rubbery molding at the top of my headlight (the one that basicaly seals the hood with the headlight) has started getting bad.
I noticed that is attached to the headlights with clip so I want to believe that is replaceable...
Do you know if and where I can buy a new one?

I redid my yellowing lenses by sanding with 800 and 1000 wet and dry (wet)and then buffing with a cutting compound. They came out looking like new and took about an hour for both.

I eventually found the part number, it's 4B0941191A for the driver and 4B0941192A for the passenger side (for the non v8 cars).
Now I need to find out where I can get these...

However, they are pricey ($38) for a simple piece of rubber.

I got it, I'm not sure why but it wasn't showing up earlier...
You are right $35+ Tax and delivery and you end up spending $50 for nothing...
