Bought one of those cheapo parts asap canopies (~$250). Claims that ABS is better than the similar HDPE ones. My experience with both HDPE and ABS is not good, but at least the replacement panels are relatively cheap and readily available. Any experience with these or ABS canopies (or HDPE)?

A problem is that my custom ROPS rises mid seat and this one is designed as if the ROPS is quite a ways behind the seat (so the rear of the canopy is too far forward). I'll have to create a rearward protruding bracket/extension.
