Here is a side by side comparison. The re-pop color is definitely wrong but that can be fixed. The lines are a little softer on the re-pop but not too bad. Size and shape are pretty much dead on.

Yes. I’ve heard some of the reproductions are not very good replicas.

Thank for the detailed thoughts. The original for my car needs skilled metal repair to straighten it. Probably not worth it.

This one came from PG Classics. My original sounds a lot like yours.
