In case anyone else ever faces this issue, the repair is relatively simple. Just drill out the two rivets holding the remaining portion of the part out. Take the silver piece that is held in place by the two rivets and swap it into the new part. Install the two new rivets and reattach the body-colored trim.

Total cost: $26.47 from Sunset Porsche

986-514-633-02 (Sealing strip) $19.77
999-190-445-37 (Rivets) .30
Shipping 6.10

I had contemplated just gluing the thing back together, but I think doing it the right way was worth the extra time and expense.
