Front bumper rubber tops - Fully erect, I mean with internal support, It has come to my attention that you may want a change Options

As many of you know I've been reproducing the the front bumper tops for some time. It has come to my attention that some folks thought that they should have an internal support like the rears I make.

When I set out to make these I did make some changes to the original design. The originals used a foam rubber as most of you know, and because the foam rubber would not hold up well in shipping and handling, and because it needed a solid structure to mount a steel insert was made to do this. We all know how well this combination worked out if you live in a wet climate.

When I made my version I decided to use a solid rubber,this allowed me to use a stainless steel "anchor point" for the attachment of the bumper. This the bumper is "floppy" when not installed. I felt that because the bumper top was being mounted to a large piece of steel that the internal support was redundant.

What I want to know is is it worth the extra $35 to put the internal stainless support in to the bumper?

I have just brought in 2000# of material and have the production line running again. As I make my own stuff I could make up some internal supports to include in the bumpers.

This also poses another question. As I'm back in full production, I will be lowering prices significantly, much greater that $35 per bumper. Would you rather take the $75 savings or do a net $40?

Please provide some input as I can easily make the change, but as you know I have tried to provide what I thought was the best product at the best price.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated

Maybe I misjudged the product, and that was what I was trying to figure out.
I have these and these sets listed on the website, but the price difference for the front is $35 with the internal stainless part.
So you'd be looking at $334 shipped instead of $299 shipped.

If there are those that want it, I can easily put it in. My problem is that I'm basically cheap. I will do something the most cost effective way I can, unless it affects the quality of the part, and if I can eliminate a nonessential redundancy I will.

From what I'm hearing here, there are at least a few of you that may want the additional internal support?
