the one in the photo doesn't look too far off, but they do also say prop shafts made to order. doesn't give a price for that though

Yep, make sure the quality is vastly better than previous efforts. A good friend had his prop twist and let go wrecking his car. The tube was very
thin and in my opinion not suitable for a propshaft.
I would recommend spending a little extra and buying from a prop manufacturer,Just to be on the safe side

I've just got a custom prop from these peeps http://www.105speed.com/default.asp?id=62 (though their props are made by a 3rd party
specialist).
A T5 box to Sierra diff propshaft with uprated UJs to handle big torque was £150 delivered - about £40 cheaper than the other quotes I had. Very happy
with quality and service.
