With regard to the rubber around the outside of the window, I got this tip from Jim Bounds when I replaced my door window: "After installation, paint both the window frame and the rubber at the same time, as the paint will protect the rubber from UV rays and prevent it from shrinking." Three summers of outdoor storage later, the rubber looks exactly the same as when it was installed. I wish I had thought of this when I did all the window trim 10 years ago, as I'm going to be re-doing them all next spring (except for the door window rubber, of course).
