Torn Ball joint boots...Aftermarket grease boots available?

So when I was putting on my front TRD coil lift I accidentally tore the ball joint boots trying to drop the A arms. Well, it was late and my friend and I were running out of patience trying to get the taller coils in.

Does anyone make a replacement grease boot or do I have to spend the extra cash on all new front ball joints? This sucks because there is no play or wear on these as of yet.

Cheers!

So if you replace just the ball joints altogether would it call for an alignment? Im gonna be replacing all 4 of mine tomorrow, the old ones dont seem bad but all the boots are dry rotted, but there is no play in the steering or anything and it drives straight.
