Gas cap rubber stop

Anybody know the best place to get a replacement? My mom's 06 boxster is missing the rubber stop, so the gas cap is resting against the metal

If you're referring to the rubber gasket, the dealer doesn't sell it separate (at least here in Toronto) I ended up buying a complete new gas cap. I think it was $20.

It's the rubber stop that let's the gas compartment door sit flush with the body, without it your gas compartment door looks like it's shut too far in.
