What model tractor? Like the other guys said, liability is a huge issue, and only a properly installed factory IH ROPS will meet those requirements.

I will agree that I'd rather have one of those non-certified aftermarket "sunshades" that are exact reproductions of the originals than nothing, as the ones I've seen are very well built, and just might save your life. Remember that the ROPS is worthless unless you are wearing a properly installed seatbelt.
