SS Hauptsturmführer shoulderboards bought from e-stand, opinions?

They look ok to me.

Thank you for your comments and help. Here you can see the entire backside. The prongs do not go right through the shoulder boards, but have been fastened before the boards were sewn together. This is what I liked about them, no Untersturmführer with a few pips added to make an upgrade and a few extra bucks. My feeling for these has been this is the way they were given from the depot to a Hauptsturmführer. But what do you think about the stitching?

These pictures of a set diplomat shoulder boards 1938-39 were posted on the e-stand. I post them in this thread as they are important for this discussion and comparison.
