sunroof leak-89 900S, found leak, best fix?

I posted a few weeks back about a leaky sunroof on my 89 900S and I finally found the source of leak: it's the white plastic/rubber trim that circles the "sunroof opening". it apparently has shrunk slightly over 12 years of braving the elements outside, which in turn has caused it to "take a shortcut" at the front right corner of the sunroof opening--similar to what the trim rubber can do after a while on the rear side windows on the hatchbacks. Anyway, my question is: what's the best fix?
-simply pushing it back out to the corner and supergluing (or other adhesive) it there?
-cut it in the middle so it fits properly in the corners and fill in the gap with an inch or two of a junkyard one (or other material)?
-buy a new piece of trim?
-other ideas?
thanks,
