Vivid's site is saying it's an Xtreme Motorcars part (no pic there or on Xtreme site that I could see)......'Fiber reinforced plastc' along with the Xtreme name......I'll keep looking.

Thanks

Thanks Alex.....appreciate your candor.....I recall some other comments along those lines.
Is it your guess we are talking one manufacturer?....ie Xtreme's and Gemballa same source?

No worries GreggT would hate to see you be disappointed. The Gemballa was a different source and certainly better than the other ones I tried but still a good ways off in terms of fitment/finish;(
