Default Deadcenter or Dragonfly

Looking seriously at Deadcenter and Dragonfly... Any experience with the companies and is there a difference in quality? Any help and input would be appreciated.

I don't know anything about the Dragonfly. I have a Dead Center fairing on an 07 RK. I can't imagine a better fairing!

The Dead Center is a bit more expensive...but....so is a Harley!

I meet the guy from dragonfly on the Hogs on the high sea's cruise, was a cool guy to hang & get smashed with, My friend Anthony has a Dragon on his King - real nice product & I bet he'll stand behind his product.
