Gasket on sunroof looks dull and cracked

The gasket has tiny cracks in it and looks a little dull. I'm wondering if this would be covered under warranty or if it would be an easy diy fix.

Anybody seen this and tried to fix it?

thanks.

Silicone grease for rubber gaskets - used sparingly. Used Shin-Etsu on my S2000 and the gaskets still looked like new after 5 years

That's weather stripping and probably should be lubricated occasionally with silicone lube.
You could try for a warranty replacement, but don't be surprised if they deny it.
