For a few very good reasons, but not new bumper

That's one reason, but not for the tow hook

It's significantly thinner, but only on the outward portion, not the inward.

The OEM front plate bracket is held on by the bumper cover, at least on my 2008, that uses the expanding rubber screw mount things.

It's counter-productive to not share resources in a public forum.

But the OP is known to not share anything beyond showing it off, so allow me to help you out here.

It's only lighter because it's thinner than the more stringent US safety specification.
