Default Tailgate Door Handle Crack

Since good originals are hard to find albeit I see there is an aftermarket version (not sure of the quality) - or how about cutting a good matching contact vinyl on top to cover the crack as a cost effective solution ?

Ordered a union jack flag decal in heavy vinyl that will cover the top and the cracks - maybe it will work for a while - only $8
That's some cheap ____ plastic they used on the D1
