Substitute for NLA Hood Gasket?

Post by jyl »

I’m looking for a passable substitute for part 51711921220, the rubber gasket that goes around the sides and rear of the engine compartment and seals against the closed hood. Or, more simply, the “hood gasket”. It is NLA but perhaps someone has found another make’s part, or a generic weatherstrip, that works and looks just right?
