Default well, if you mean structurally sound...then I will have to disagree, if you mean structural fitment,
then I will agree. The front bumper is a bitch to put on, and the sides took some extra work, the rear was easy though. But as far as strength, It's on top IMO. I have had my car come down off of a car lift too hard and it didn't even break the lip, I have also had the front lip get smacked by a HUGE piece of debris and it barely chipped it. I would say it's strength is it's weakness, it's a fiberglass compound.

But no other aftermarket bumper give the best OE look than the Sportec.
