Default Engine splash guard: cheapo chinese vs TBW

Anyone have experience with both?
These (and other similar ones) are about half the price (or less) than TBW:

Made in the USA sounds nice, but without knowing actual benefits I'm reluctant to pay twice as much...

I shopped around for a while and eventually went with Z1 for the oil drain hole, 2-bolt removable rear panel, and rear facing holes to create a low pressure zone pulling heat from the engine bay.

Looks like a copy of the Zspeed plate. I have one I can probably sell but might be missing hardware. LMK if interested and we can work on a price.
