does this seem like a good deal or should i stay away

i was looking for a header panel on ebay and found this from d&h auto parts for 18.95 plus s/h. i was just wandering if you guys think its a good deal or should i spend the 100+ for the one off of lmctruck.

i guess my question is, does the header panel off ebay havea high risk of not fitting because of its cheapness.
