Default 70-73 plastic repop valances

Can anyone speak to the quality of these reproductions? I found this on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1970-73-TRAN...1c78b5&vxp=mtr

What about the one's on PY, or Ames, or the other sites? PY's person on the phone today said that the plastic valances they get are from a source which is spotty on their quality. I need a decent replacement as my steel valance is hammered up pretty good.

These Carbon Fibre pieces aren't cheap, but I hear they are a good fit.

If you're going with plastic, make sure it's the right style. Otherwise, I would stick with metal, it's much more durable.
