Gutter pinch seam covers, chrome or otherwise

These go over the pinch seam at the rain gutter and run full length of the roof, they glue on.

Where can I find them, I have one on my 90' that the very end of it is broken off. I would like to replace both of them with blacked out versions.
 
Unless you wheel where there are no trees, I would just yank the thing off and paint the seam black. Mine got pulled off by an overhanging branch and I figure it will just happen again if I glue a new one on there.
 
X2, I need one too!

I'm looking for them for my 90' DD that I'm restoring, I know what your saying I rub them on my trail rig often.
 
Is there any trick, preffered method to R & R'ing them with out damaging them when we do a JY pull?

They are not glued on they are held on by metal clips. If you put your thumbs on the bottom of the gutter and kinda push down with your other 8 fingers on top of it. and use your thumbs to push out and up out and up they roll off. you will have to do this in about 4 places where the clips are located.
