I rarely see any aftermarket bumpers that I like. Saw this one posted on the FB group. Unfortunately it is Chinese made and I'm sure the quality would be questionable. Still a decent looking bumper compared to others.

I'll agree with you, I like the look but would be very leery of the quality.

That's interesting. I like the tread plates on top for standing on.

Do bumpers require DOT compliance for street use? Brake lines and tires come to mind-they have USDOT ID numbers on them. In a crash, a good lawyer will find out.

America ain't free and clear of churning out some galactic turds, 4.3 Olds diesel, Tacoma Narrows bridge, Donnie and Marie just to name a few. My AEG tube doors came from China and are high quality in my 45 years welding and mechanic opinion FWIW. Looks like this bumper is plastic, but I doubt that the quality is any less than the plastic stock bumper just because it's Chinese. It might fade faster, but it might not. Can't know until it's parked on your front for some time, and there have already been threads devoted to fading black fenders that are stock. Heat gun, rattle can, or live with it are the choices with all plastic regardless of country of origin. Here in AZ EVERYTHING fades, even the people.

The only thing that matters is if you like the style and want a Tumbler looking fascia because even with the deck plating bolted/screwed on, there's no indication about the structure underneath without an interpreter other than the hooks and Mopar overrider mounted on the frame horns. And as to the hooks, after witnessing countless tons of scrap metal shipped overseas to Korea and China to be re-melted and reused including the ships taking it, I wouldn't be surprised if these were once a Desoto and/or a mothballed Victory ship.

Aluminum or fiberglass are fine for city driving, but if you're going to do anything off-road where it's even a little conceivable that you could have to winch yourself out or use a recovery strap, wouldn't it be much, much better to be using a steel bumper with tow hooks that are bolted to that steel? I wouldn't think that aluminum or fiberglass would be of much use if you had to put much pressure on that bumper at all.
