Favorite brand skull plate for elk sheds?

I have to mount an elk for a guy with 330 class sheds. I have used Research before, but did not really like the material. Wondering if there are any other brands that work well. I don't like the Research that well because I need to make this thing fit the cape, and if I have to saw out a section to bring the bases closer it seems like it would be difficult.

Van Dykes makes a kit
its got a vinyl cover with a elk impression on it
and a panel and tacks,decorative braid,trophy plate and all the hardware in one kit

i like the black cover

give them a ring i like the kits alot and they are pretty easy to
fit up to the antlers
i just trim the horns and mache if i need to
not much time involved once youve done a couple
