Aftermarket bumpers that keep the crash beem

I unfortunately wrecked my car with the last snow storm here, so I need a new front bumper and am going get something other than oem since I'm paying for it. So, what bumpers allow you keep the crash beam for the front? I'll probably just end up with a C-west which removes the beam, but I just wanted to see what my options are.

in short, anything that looks halfway decent requires you to remove the bump support...

Basically any bumper made in Japan will force you to remove it.

Any bumper made in the U.S. will allow you to keep it.

I'm not 100% sure, but the Ings+1 knockoff that Evodave sells might let you keep it.

Most JDM aftermarket bumpers (front or rear) will require you to remove the usdm 5mph bumper beams (front and rear). This is because there's no such mandate in Japan.
