Default Smooth Bellow question

I've been to Lowes and HD and can't find the material to make a smooth bellow. Can anyone maybe lead me in the right direction for making my own??? Please don't give me any search remarks, the search for this website sucks IMO.

I bought a rubber fenco at home depot. It was 3" dia. I had to do a little
cutting with a box cutter to make it fit but I like it much better than
the oem accordian style piece.
