The best one is made by Dennis carpenter with original tooling. They fit and look great. But they are expensive. The cheaper shells are going to be a hit or miss with fit and they are all of less quality. Some have fit so badly that guys throw them away. Best bet would be to find a nice used one, but even those are getting expensive for nice ones.

DC for sure. I heard the aluminum ones from LMC are garbage. I think NBCSteve on here is running a chromed steel shell from lmc and it came out great.

I also think Ronzi is running a steel chrome shell and looks good. They are about as much as DC though.
