Default DV8 vs Fishbone Offroad

Can anyone give me feedback on both DV8 Off-road and Fishbone Off-road stubby bumpers and their steel fenders?
I've been saving for a Poison Spyder bumper and then planned on working up to their fenders, but man the price and look of both the DV8 and Fishbone is sure nice, just don't know about their quality.

DV8 is cheap chinese knock-offs. Similar to e-AutoGrilles. I would stay away.

For most aftermarket jeep products, the ole adage of you-get-what-you-pay-for holds true. Most items like this that run considerably cheaper are produced overseas. That said, depending on budget, use, and personal preference, they may or may not fit what you're looking for. I would say bumpers probably not as big of a deal. If you're wheelin and might bump in to something now and again.....I'd lean towards a nice quality fender.

Thank you, I'll just keep saving. I thought both were American made.
