Looking for a CADPAT helmet cover to go over a PASGT helment. Yes, I know that the MICH TC-2000 helmets look closer to the CG634, and I probably will get one of those eventually, but for now a PASGT is what I have.

I found this cover on eBay but the repro CADPAT pattern looks a little "off" - I know all of them do, but this one more than others (darker green colourway is a little too olive, lighter green colourway is a little too yellow):

Ordinarily I might just get it anyway, but it's a medium and I think my PASGT is on the larger end of sizes... but it may be fine in the end, I'm not sure.

Also found this cover on Prefair:

There's a CADPAT option, but there's no preview of the pattern.

Anyone have any experience with the Prefair CADPAT helmet cover, or the CADPAT reproduction as sold by Prefair?

Alternatively, anyone have a source for helmet covers with a decent CADPAT pattern that will fit on a PASGT for $30 or less?

I'm certain someone will chime in saying I need to pay more for a MICH 2000 and a real cover. At some point I will. Right now I'm just working with what I have with a reasonable budget for simple airsoft play rather than trying to achieve a re-enactor level of authenticity.
