Default Cheap eBay Bumper

https://www.ebay.com/itm/11501903679...wAAOSwScxhji5L

This looks like the Atlantic British bumper, just $200 cheaper.
Has anyone bought one?

I have the AB rear bumper and you are right it looks pretty close. Something about the welds looks a little different. Something interesting about the seller as well, says the store location is Alabama but the seller location is China.

Looks the same as the one I got late last year. The end pieces are incorrectly angled so the corner finishers won't reinstall unless you trim them, but otherwise it seems to be decent. Certainly better than a cracked OEM plastic one.

Take a look at their matching front bumper. The metal thickness as well as the bolt-together nature of something marketed as a "winch bumper" is terrifying. It might be quite a bit cheaper than the AB bumper, but I'd personally approach with caution. If you do pick it up, please come back with some real world feedback please!

If you're scrounging for change in the couch its an option but personally I run away from the britpart brand. Buy once cry once: Dark Crow Designs, Caseys Custom, Tactical 4x4

FWIW-Seller is based in China, despite being shipped from Mobile, AL. In reading the reviews of various sales, seem to be issues with fitment and quality of all products for many different cars/trucks. Personally I do not buy from anyone who has less than a 99.5% rating. got burned a few times with Chinese based companies.
