Hey Joe,
They are rubber, and Ozone and heat does put age on them! I would think either using some Plastidip(liquid rubber) as a coating over them, or even some black silicone RTV slathered on the outside might work well.
But even if they get weathered on the outside, they are dual layered and usually don't leak thru to the insides anyways, just cosmetic!
