Default Chinese Radiators 2002 EC200

Hey all,
I am deep into a rebuild of my EC200, what started as an engine lock up is now a frame off rebuild. Fun (and a very mad wife).

I had my rad's boiled and leak tested, and all good, but they are very beat up, bent, twisted, crushed fins, smashed in side... I sorta fall off a lot and hit stuff .

Even though they are good for leaks, the shape they are in makes it hard to mount up and line up the shrouds, I was looking at brand new rads on ebay, they come from China. Has anyone ordered these rads? Maybe they are the OEM ones and I shouldn't worry. Maybe I should be happy that the 9 year old rads I have don't leak and take a lot of abuse instead of dumping $200 into new ones.

All comments appreciated!

Thanks!
