Default 997.1 replacing window weatherstripping

Has anyone tried to replace this weatherstripping on the 997.1? It's number 13 in the illustration. It wraps all the way around the windows, with a separate piece on the door window. I have a slight blemish on my driver's side and was thinking of just replacing it. I'm just wondering how involved it would be for a 2 banana mechanic like me.

$326.xx plus shipping is a crazy blemmish.

I could be thinking of a different part but I was told by a body shop that these are riveted in or something insane like that. You’d need to drill them out.

Edit:
Here’s a link:

If I were you I’d google and YouTube the gtechniq C4 product.

The C4 would be good as soon as I figure out how to clean out and refill this gouge. I knocked over a piece of metal and it hit the car. I totally had a heart attack. When I got over there and looked, it had hit exactly on that rubber piece ... not the body or the window. I was shocked and relieved. It could have been worse!
