I believe it is rubber and others have used it for headlights
There are some threads her regarding it

If $20 is too expensive for a minor repair, perhalps you should not own a Porsche

Wealthy people don't become wealthy paying more for something that can be purchased less expensively. Must suck to be poor. Have a nice day .
