A reinforcement beam for a vehicle bumper assembly includes a metal sheet formed into a beam having at least one tubular section extending along a length of the beam. The length of the beam has a central section disposed between end sections of the beam, such that the length of the beam spans laterally across a vehicle frame. The beam also has bend sections formed between the central section and the end sections of the beam to dispose the end sections rearward from the central section relative to the vehicle frame. The end sections of the beam terminate at distal ends an extended length outboard along the length of the beam from the pair of connection features configured to attach the beam to crush cans.

A vehicle bumper apparatus including a first material; a second material; a filling; and an attachment device. The first material may be connected to the second material such that the filling is between the first material and the second material, and a plurality of bumps are formed in the first material, and a plurality of bumps are formed in the second material. The attachment device may be attached to one of the plurality of bumps of the first material, wherein the attachment device is configured to attach the vehicle bumper apparatus to a vehicle so that at least part of the vehicle bumper apparatus covers a vehicle bumper and a rear vehicle outer wall. The attachment device may include hooks and/or loops configured to attach to loops and/or hooks on the vehicle. The attachment device, and the plurality of bumps of the first and second material may be elongated.

A secondary bumper assembly is provided and includes a base plate, a secondary bumper, and heel blocks. The base plate includes holes for mounting the secondary bumper assembly to a primary bumper. The secondary bumper is disposed on the base plate. The secondary bumper includes a main body and a base. First and second grooves exist between portions of the main body and the base, which has base segments. The heel blocks include flanges and maintain contact between or at least partially prevent movement between the secondary bumper and the base plate. The base segments slide into gaps between the base plate and the heel blocks. A hardness level of the base segments is greater than a predetermined level to prevent flexing of the base segments in a direction away from portions of the main body opposite the base segments. The flanges slide respectively into the first and second grooves.
