99 spec wing seal or gasket

I have a freshly painted 99 spec wing...what do you guys use along the bottom edge of the wing where it touches the hatch? I know there used to be a felt strip but by now most of them have either crumbled away or are just gone after paint.

Sticky back neoprene strip, it's flexible enough to go around the edges of the uprights in one piece and works as per the oem gasket.

I found this thread could be useful to answer this question, it seems like one of the mcmaster carr products mentioned down the thread would be the best answer

I just ordered some, it's going to be 10 feet long which is more than I need. I can probably send you the rest for my cost + the shipping. I ship stuff to europe quite often.
