Default C4 Door Panels

I was wondering if anyone who's ever purchased and installed new replacement door panels for 94-96 Corvettes can tell me if they are improved over the factory originals. Both of my door panels have the infamous sagging and I've tried the zip-tie trick and the riveting metal plates method to fix the problem but both have failed and I'm thinking of just paying the hundreds of dollars for new ones. Are they worth it, or should I just look for other methods to fix this issue?

I bought new ones for my 88 from Top Flight. Couldnt believe how much they were improved VS OEM. Was beefier, way stronger and well built. Very happy with them.

Thanks so much! I was hoping for a much needed improvement for these panels before I bought them.
