Default Wind deflectors: JES or J&P?

Can anyone tell me the difference between these two, other than price and distributor? They look identical, but the J&P are about $40 cheaper than the JES brand.

Don't know about the other brand but can tell you from having owned a JES that they are top quality.

These give you more protection....

and if you have the fairing mounted deflectors also, you will get almost 0 buffeting.....

i got these....http://jescustomaccents.com/product....&categoryId=34 that have the cut out for full lock, otherwise they bang the crash bars. helped a lot. don't think the others have the notch. if you have crash bars, you might want to think about them. the black matches good with the bike too.

I was asking the same thing a few weeks ago. I got the JES and I am glad I did, awesome.

They may look the same in the photo but my guess is they aren't the same in person. I've had two pair of JES Customs (with and without lowers models) and they're a top quality piece. Made by an American; in American.
