    Let me first start off by saying this isn't a comparison between a competitors bumper and ours. We actually think it's a very nicely built bumper and they have have a lot of attention to detail. We've blocked out their logo in an effort to not make this a us verses them post. This is to compare a common misconception we get about hybrid bumpers.

    We get phone calls and questions about a hybrid bumpers and while we have plans to build our own very soon. I wanted to address the weight issue, people often assume that hybrids weigh less than a plate bumper. and while all bumpers are obviously built different we wanted to show you the difference in weight with our regular bumper and a popular hybrid bumper. The internals of our bumpers allow us to make our plate bumpers strong but yet very weight efficient. There are also other design features not listed that allow us to keep the weight down. This is also steel verses Steel. Our aluminums weigh way less.

    Again this isn't about us slamming another companies product. Just using it as reference to those that question the weight difference.
