Never used one. There are several quality original shells out there. You won't have to worry about quality or fit.

My original is not worth repairing, tears and dents etc.

Reports back to us are the fit is OK. The stamping is less than perfect and has some ripples. These are not be as good as a well restored original, but far better than a cracked, banged up, and farmer repaired one.
