Replacing 17 year old plastic radiator

[mooty]

I've finally given up putting bandaids on the stock radiator and bought a replacement. I was curious what you all thought of all aluminum vs the stock plastic/aluminum core design. Also, any thoughts on which hoses and fittings I should bother to replace?

Just an update. I bought a generic all aluminum unit off of ebay that went in without a hitch. No need to replace anything, just brushed and used some teflon tape on the coolant line fittings. Added a 160F thermostat and all set for summer.
