IIRC you have some carpentry skills Mindy. Why not make your own out of wood? Just need to coat with some epoxy or marine varnish to waterproof. Will look bomber too, way better than common black plastic or the tacky fake woodgrain plastic. Plenty of ways to go about it, you could use a router on a solid frame to notch the groove for the glass or put those framing skills to work with some creative joinery. Now that I think of it, one could even make them out of aluminum stock available at the local Princess Auto.
