Default Kamtec or Team bluegroove?

Going to get a new shell for my Cat xls
Both the above traders on ebay do them
Has anyone used them before? & what is the quality of their shells?

Team Bluegroove - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Both have pros and cons, if you need the wing then the Kamtec shell does not come with one, but the TBG shell does. And if you need the undertray then the Kamtec shell comes with one, where the TBG one you need to buy seperately.

I've found both to be fine when it comes to quality

i`ve had shells from both and quality wise kamtec shells are better than the bluegroove ones.
i found that on the bluegroove shells the lexan thickness varies quite a lot and can be very thin in places,great for shelf queens but not so good for racing.
