i had a Duraflex lip on a differnt car
and it actually held up quite good
i bottom it out quite a few times and it did not fall apart.
i remember this one, i was driving pretty fast and didn't see a huge dip in the road and hit the lip with full force. from the noise, i thought i broke lip and part of the bumper. Pulled over to check and it looked fine, just some paint missing on the bottom. and I have seen other Fiberglass lips shatter, even at low speeds.
but in your case, i would try to get a refund

i have a pair of their js replica fenders. i knew off the bat that they werent going to fit perfect, but the fact that they are less than half the price of the real ones, i accepted that. the fit is not great, but i mainly wanted them so i could run 17x10 +22. im not defending the company but keep in mind its a replica part thats like half the cost of the real thing or even less.
that said i would ask them how they intend for you to fit this bumper on, and if thats not possible then they need to give you a refund. I think i remember on their site it said you may need to remove the crash bar

I understand the product wasn't going to be nearly bolt on status as the real thing ASM bumper does (which still requires minor work too.) But with the cost of trying to make this bumper fit I could buy an authentic ASM bumper and it still wouldn't fit as great. The site does not state anything about removing the front crash bar otherwise I would would have skipped out on this bumper altogether.

So recent update. It has been over a month that I have been dealing with Extreme Dimensions and still have not gotten a refund for this defective bumper. They want me to remove the front crash bar still 
in order prove the bumper is truly defective. How simple is it to remove the front crash bar so I can take more detailed pictures of the hideous fitment 
any help would be appreciated.

A: the replica really is just THAT crappy and off
or
B: They are trying to stall and/or give the owner a hard time with this in an effort to make the owner give up on a refund

I don't understand how they can make a replica of something that doesn't require the crash bar being removed, and it require the crash bar to be removed..
