[DeTomaso] Anyone buy One of the New Pantera racks on ebay from San Diego?

I bought one and compared it to a Pantera rack and to the clamp that holds the rack.  It looks good on the outside, at least not cheap junk.  As Mike Drew commented, the area on the driver's side that the clamp fits into must be slightly widened, like 0.01 inches or a bit more, for the clamp to fit.

Interested in their thoughts.
