Can't open the link, so I'm going to hazard a guess...

3M VHB (double-sided) tape is available in a variety of widths and thicknesses (I use a lot of 1/2" wide by .040" thick stuff on BMWs). The tape itself is "black" (anthracite?) but there is a red colored liner sto peel off one side.

If that's not even close to what you're looking for, then you'll have to do a better job of asking for me to be able to help you... ;)

Kurt,
That's flat vinyl, glued in place ( contact cement works ). Supplier of the door cards may have included a roll of matching vinyl. It is on the cars with side curtains to cover the gap between the cockpit surround aluminum and the door panels.
