[Collins] PM-2 power supply - case top front edge protector

I'm in process of restoring a couple of PM-2 power supplies. The 
rubber (?) protection strip along the top front edge (used to provide 
a 'buffer' for the lid on the KWM-2 to rest on when fully open) is 
very discoloured on both of them and really needs to be replaced.

The strip is 'wrapped round' the top front edge of the PM-2 case for 
most of its width and is about 3/8 inch wide on each side of the sheet 
metal - sort of like a thin U shape that slips over edge of the PM-2 
case and hides the otherwise unfinished sheetmetal edge.

The 'rubber' it is made from is maybe 1/16 inch thick at most but this 
is enough to stop the M2 lid from resting directly on the PM-2 case 
edge when the lid is fully opened back. Total length of strip required 
is about 12-13 inches per PM-2 so I need maybe 28-30 inches at most.

 Not managed to source anything quite like it yet. Is there anyone on 
list who has been down this track before-I'd be appreciative of any 
suggestions for a source for a replacement-which needs to be grey.
