Default Door Hinge Covers are junk!

I finally got some time to permanently mount the fiberglass door hinge covers on my CSX. Figured I'd press them on, drill a couple holes in each one for some screws, and be done. What a couple of pieces of junk! The fiberglass has visible flaws/indentations in the surface. They are warped so bad along the sides that they start to split when I press them onto the hinge. And the black finish is flaking off, revealing white underneath.

I have done the search thing here to see if others have had the same experience. The threads are several years old.

Does anyone sell a quality hinge cover, or do I just have to make some myself? I sure wasted my $$ on these.
