So I have a 2003 Supra launch, and my factory front and center ballast bag has a rip in the crease. I have looked in and out to try and find one that will fit and have had no such luck..

Anybody know of a good, cost effective company?

I looked into getting a custom made bag a few years ago from fly high, and it was way too expensive. I think they wanted $450 for a 80"x10"x10" bag.

Check with wakemakers.com. They sell fly high bags and can get you the custom ones.

Look at it from this perspective. The sacs are at the heart of your of your objective. Spend a couple hundred extra on the sacs and it will pay off. You will go through boards & wetsuits and whatever else but having well made sacs is more important to me than other equipment. Everybody in your boat depends on the sacs performing. High Fly, though a a little more, are made to last and they do an awesome job. I'm looking at the semi-custom sacs so if I do move to a different boat I have the versatility of taking them with me. There are other well made bags but HighFly is best IMO. Also, get quotes through wakemakers.com or your local shops, sometimes you can save a little. For plumbing I like wakemakers fittings & especially their Elevate pump.

I also think that taking high bags is the best option for you in this case.

Fly high makes great bags. I was just saying that their custom prices are too high. You are much better off buying the closest mass produced bag they make. You will save a coupe hundred at least. I have a source that can get fly high bags ~20% off retail if anyone needs it.
