So I pulled the trigger and bought a black 07-08 seat cowl from divinitymotor on ebay. I was expecting a few issues, and the paint to be slightly off, but for $50 shipped to my door I figured it would be something I could just test out to see if I like it.
I'm pretty much a perfectionist when it comes to my bike, so take that into consideration when reading this review.
Overall I'd rate it as an 8/10.
Pros:
cheap ($50 shipped)
fit is 100% spot on
padding feels nice, no visible seams, perfectly matches the seat padding
no indentations from the screws/rivets or flaws visible when attached to the bike
locks solid and doesn't move around or rattle
Cons:
paint does not match 100% (lacks the sparkle of the stock black paint)
one screw hole was broken (that holds the mounting part of the solo seat to the exterior) so I just used super glue on it to give me peace of mind (missing screw did not affect functionality)
So 8/10, the paint difference is absolutely minute, you will not notice it unless you're looking for it. For $50 shipped I'd definitely recommend it.

^^ makes the paint difference look a lot worse than it actually is, flash was on
