Are the stock bumpers ultra light guage steel? They are the most flimsy bumpers I've seen. Just wiping them with a rag you see them flex. Is this some safety thing on the newer vehicles? My 04 fx4 bumpers weren't like this..

Weight reduction to meet federal fuel economy requirements. Soon those bumpers will be plastic like all the cars--or maybe aluminum like your beer can!
