Trunk Lid Worth The Money?

At a local junk yard, wingless deck lid for $50.
Cheapest one, I found so far.. but you obviously get what you pay for.
Other's I've found are like $100+, which for that price I'd rather just take my high rise off and plug holes.
Looks like it's heavily scratched and maybe even a little rust. Worth it?

What would you do about that long scratched section on the edge of the top?

Maybe instead of plastidip, a carbon fiber vinyl wrap maybe?

Do you know how much vinyl would be required?
I know the higher quality stuff can get expensive.

Think I should pick it up then? I'm not looking for too much work.
I just want to be wingless for awhile.
