2 options here:
Home Depot lip or try and make a different model/make OEM lip fit.
or you could fab two lips together if you were good at fiberglass/poly work?
^but that's too much work.. you've got 2 options haha

In the gardening section they sell this flexible black plastic strip that people put on the edge of their flower beds.

It looks like people are using a thinner version too which looks more like an oem lip
