OEM style bumper from Ebay?

[mixdup]

Hoping someone can shed some light. I have a 22 Sahara that I want to swap the bumper over to the Rubicon style steel bumper. This, together with the skid plate is $1500+ on Quadratec. However, on ebay there's a parts dealer from China (with a warehouse in California, supposedly) selling the bumpers for about $400 and the skidplate for around $150. This is less than people are selling pull-offs on Facebook locally

They've sold 100+ of these according to the listing, but does anyone know the catch? I'm guessing these aren't going to be labled as Mopar parts, and not in a Mopar box. Are they going to be junk? Should I just risk it and get my money back from ebay if it's garbage?

They're usually aluminum and the workmanship isn't the same quality around the cuts and welds.

Long thread about them here below. I considered getting one, but with all the tweaking needed and quality issues, I just went with the Mopar steel bumper.

I've bought 3 of them for 3 different JL's from Amazon. Different sellers, same bumper. All steel and surprisingly good quality. Comes with LED fogs, winch plate, and bull bar. This is the last one I bought BTW, I'm betting the "factory" steel bumper is built in the same country this one is.

Thanks, after reading the other thread linked earlier here, I pounced on the one from ebay. Really think these are being stamped out of the same plant the Mopar ones are
