Vis, Kaminari, Wings West and Erebuni are all good from what I've seen, Asylumms are shit, and Carisma I haven't seen any of there's in person.

Alot of performance and modifications stores in the Houston area only sell Wings West-something about durability, if that helps. I think the deal is with the urythane vs. fiberglass. you want to go with urythane because fiberglass will crack. Hope that helps

Oy, but urethane will sag, and a GOOD quality fiberglass will not crack unless you're just flying into curbs and shit. There is cheap/thin fiberglass (asylumms) and thick/high quality fiberglass (WW, Vis, Erebuni and Kaminari). Get fiberglass, 95% of the people on this board have it.
NOTE: I think some of Kaminari's stuff is urethane. Also I'm not saying that urethane sucks, I'm just saying it wouldn't be my first choice by far.

Well, I have an erebuni front. it was raining, and I had an incedent with a dran grate in a parking lot. Didn't see it. My front tire dipped in and I scraped hard. no cracks. It holds up really good and looks great. Not many people have the erebuni front. I think the most common is the blitz.The wings west is also a nice one from what I hear.
