The bumper system in your Nissan contains a handful of hardworking parts that allow it to disperse shockwaves in collisions. The bumper you see on the exterior of your Nissan is actually just a cover, but tucked underneath, there's a bumper impact bar, impact absorber, and a system of mounting clips and brackets to keep your bumper securely held in place.
Your Nissan Bumper Impact Bar is a metal piece that is designed to distribute energy from impact during a collision. If your vehicle is hit in the bumper area, the Bumper Impact Bar can absorb and distribute some of the impact energy into other parts of your vehicle frame that are designed to safely collapse (these are referred to as "crush points"). The Bumper Impact Bar can also decrease the severity of the shockwave that the vehicle occupants experience upon impact.
Since your Nissan Bumper Impact Bar is crucial for safety in a crash, you should never attempt to repair a damaged or cracked bar. You need to replace the Bumper Impact Bar completely to be sure that your bumper components and your car's designated frame crush points can perform as they're supposed to in a crash. Trust your vehicle's OEM, Nissan, for a new Bumper Impact Bar that's tailor-made for the exact dimensions of your Nissan. Then, make the trip to a nearby Nissan authorized service center for installation done right.
