Yes, I know what a pit maneuver is, but, 90% of a bumper today is soft rubber / plastic with a styrofoam filler. You might think that's great stuff, but I certainly don't. Older cars 80's on back didn't need a fortress around the front end to do a pit maneuver. I backed a 77 Royal Monaco into a telephone pole one day and didn't put a scratch on it. Another time, someone backed into me in a parking, it tore one whole side of her bumper lose so it hit the ground, and there was not a scratch on the Monaco.
