Default Ebay billet grills?

I have seen some cheap billet grills on ebay and was wondering if they are any good or if it is better to spend the extra money and get a better grill?

I've got one brand name grille and another ebay grille and can't tell any difference in look or quality.

I've had both on a prior vehicle. Typically, your "name brand" places will have better packaging and instructions, but similar quality as the eBay products. However, I've noticed that the eBay ones do tend to corrode/rust/pit easier over time. After 5+ years, the ones I bought on eBay were starting to look funky, but the Street Scene ones still looked pretty new.
