ELaudio is an unknown quantity at this point
Plastic spoliers are either Injection Molded or Blow Molded. Injection molding typically gives you a more accurate part, with a better surface finish. A blow molded part typically doesn't have a very even surface finish. To give you an example, 2-liter coke bottles are blow-molded. Something like a TV remote control or the case for a cell-phone is injection molded. I'd say go for the injection molded part, especially if ordering online - sight unseen...
