Default where to get the best v2 or n2 front bumper

I know there are a lot of cheap or bad front bumpers out there. I want to the this style front bumper but wanted some input about where to get the best one for the best price.

This is what I am after


I see VIS on ebay
Here

Shine
here


strafe

and others.


Where would be the best place to get one that would be durable and have good fitment?

Shine. Fitment is perfect and their hybrid FRP material will tend to bend rather than break like normal FRP.

Strafe and every other VIS reseller has great prices and it's a great fit- I just prefer not to have to keep making fiberglass repairs whenever the front bottoms out.

True^^^^

But I think op is mainly concerned with PRICE and fitment,

Shines hybrid material is sweet, So it's just up to op.... Personally I would just pay the extra, but it depends how low u are and the possibility of scraping lol
