anyone used a Limbotics (eBay) ducktail?
 
As in the title, looking for anyone with a review of one of these - thanks

This looks like the one I bought. Same pictures and same stud arrangement. In a nutshell, it's a very poor example of a ducktail. The major problems are that it's a poor mold, the underside is 'not correct, and the studs are all wrong and crooked. It should have riveted nut-serts so that you can use stock hardware. On the bright side, it's so flimsy that it's extremely light.

The most egregious portion is the top where it meets the body. Mine shrunk across the top and was an extremely poor fit. The sides are wavy too where they meet the body. I sprayed mine with plasti-dip and it looks OK from 10 feet, but to me, it would cost way more in body work to turn this around and it still wouldn't be 'correct'. Go with a quality product like sonjay, or Getty.

If you are curious, you can search my build thread, it's toward the end.

That's too bad. But, all too often, you get what you pay for...
