Any Experience with Golden Star Body Panels?

I'm looking to purchase some Golden Star floor pan sections for my 66. The stamping looks accurate and crisp to me, but I don't want to buy junk. I was going to buy AMD 1/2 floor panels, but I don't want to spend all the money on truck freight, and they don't make 1/4 sections. These Golden Star panels look comparable in the quality of the stamp. I would appreciate your opinions.
 
Again, I'm only going off hearsay, but I believe amd uses golden legion and goodmark when they need to outsource. They don't use golden star, and that may be significant.
 
Well after some more reading, I purchased a Sherman floor ¼ section for the passenger front. They are thicker guage, and they're made in the good ole USA. I'll let you know how it looks when it arrives, along with the two inner cowl pieces I had to order from AMD to replace a bunch of rot.
Wish me luck!
