Smooth Decklid Panel: CJPonyParts or RTR

Lets try this again. Accidentally posted in the wrong section originally.

Paint is fading on my stock decklid and I want to pick up a smooth panel for my '13 GT. Had originally planned on going the RTR route but I see that CJPonyparts now offers a smooth one as well. Anybody have experience with the two or can give me some insight into which one people generally prefer? They look pretty similar and price is right around the same. Hoping to get some hands on opinions.

The CJ decklid is plastic

The RTR used to be metal, not sure if they changed things, but I love mine.
Had it color-matched and had a custom decal installed:

Thanks for the input. The new RTR's are definitely ABS plastic too. I think they changed it up when they put them back into production after they were missing from market for a while.

Yours looks awesome! Didn't think I'd like it body matched but definitely looks slick with the taillight trim.

Thanks. I keep forgetting that I did the AM taillight trim too back there.

I wanted this look as soon as I saw the Mustang in the Need For Speed movie
