Hi Charlie,

I got the 1/8" (7/64"?) stuff from the local hardware store. It is pretty inexpensive, and great for this size. I tried it on my wheel skirts, and it was a no go really -- too brittle, too heavy, and not stiff enough. But for fog light covers, it is great.

I think that I will try silicon.
